YouTube is now the leading way Americans watch video, but its rise hasn’t come without controversy. The company’s chief executive, Neal Mohan, discussed free speech, the platform’s dominance over TV and Hollywood, its impact on children, A.I. slop and more. Read, watch or listen to “The Interview.”

Great talking with @naterogers.bsky.social !
It’s copyright and I’m not a lawyer. As a creator I’d think about:
1) do they own the rights they’re claiming?
2) do you have a valid license for those rights?
3) is there a fair use claim you can make?

Like @mkbhd.com @hankgreen.bsky.social I’ve always wanted a YouTube Recap…
…And now it’s here and starts rolling out today!
youtube.com/shorts/9yNhO...
We keep moments in cache, we write memories to drive. Three years at YouTube and the constant pull forward is only made possible by the people, places, and events that have pushed so far. Here are shared some of those moments made memory, in deep appreciation and gratitude. And to everything next!
What’s the biggest myth about creating on YouTube that you’d love to see confirmed/busted today? 🤔 🫡
10am PT! @VidCon ! Join Jenny Hoyos @toddb.com and me for the YouTube Algorithms… Decoded!
Hi creators! If you’re at DreamCon today come by the YouTube lounge! @toddb.com and I will be chatting discovery algorithm and more!
(The moments that remind you you’re beyond fortunate to have one of the best jobs in the world!)
Also: Hey, where’s @luria.bsky.social ?!
(And partners!)
TSA: Hey, you’re that phone video guy! I watched you all the time before you went to YouTube!
Me: I’m so sorry but I get to help so many creators now!
TSA: I know. I’m one of them. Appreciate you!
Me: 😳🥺🫡
Seriously! You too!

Can’t wait to see all the tech creators at #GoogleIO! You are my people. And this is my terribad attempt to pour some IO themed latte art in your caffeinated honor!
Each channel has to reach monetization on its own
Hi. I abide! Shorts monetization thresholds are based on views not watch time. Hope that helps!
(And would have maybe pushed out the negative sentiment and 0% they'll get now?)
Totally agreed that you can't have multiple middle people in the agency model; Apple would likely have been wise to offer some split for digital goods since even 10/20 or 15/15 is still basically a license to print money — especially for games
When that became untenable and they extended post-install purchases to free apps, they made it IAP only for the same reason
and they'd effectively stop making any revenue from the App Store (which much would later be the main driver behind promising to double services revenue in 2 years)
So, first, they announced that free apps had to stay free, and only paid apps could offer post-install purchases
@gruber.foo re: daringfireball.net/linked/2025/...
My recollection (and it might well be wrong!) was that Apple thought if they allowed alternate in-app (or from-app to web), every app (and game) on the store would go free with alt IAP or web links
If YouTube is part of your plan and it would be helpful to talk, always here!
Happy 20th bday YouTube from CPO Johanna Voolich and me! 🎂🎈🎉

Amazing!
And under furniture even if that furniture didn’t seem to be there mere moments before
What’s your vibe today?
