Do you think not even Wikipedia could pull this off? Maybe is content was limited for Scientific channels? Maybe if Wikipedia buys Subbable, and uses VP9 to reduce some bandwidth costs?
Well, I was thinking more in terms of discoverability. Like if we treat Wikipedia for answers about facts, we should have a place like that for videos. If there was a video about science, and people are looking for that content. My main struggle with Youtube it's discovery page, and content creators having to do certain things to compete with mediocre content.
Yes, I agree with you with most of what you said, however, there are dozens of programming languages in English that don't get enough attention, why can't a non-English language be popular in its part of the world?
