There is something going on (think the backstory is fairly well covered as to the why's and more to come..maybe :() and its really hurting (killing off) good topical channels (large and small). A few good channels I subscribed to have either stopped content or are in the process of moving onto other platforms like VidMe and dtube. Moving to the block chain universe seems to be the right move..imho Good luck to you! (VIDME is going off-line and D-Tube..its problematic imo)
