People did try to leave in the late 2000s/early 2010s

I remember when all the big critics (which were popular style of video at the time) movied to Blip.TV

i tried to switch to vimeo back in 2011 and they deleted my shit (gameplay videos) because it wasn't "artistic" enough. instantly went walk of shaming back to youtube

WTF? Vimeo is for finding full episodes ofbshows that get deleted from youtube instantly. When did they get so pretentious?
