Representative for who?

I haven't been longer than 15 minutes on YouTube - in total within the past 2 years. So certainly not representative for me.



"Representative" means of a population.

"Representative for me" is incoherent. You're not a population; you don't have population statistics.


True, i give you that.

But saying YouTube must be included is like saying that most people watch YouTube, which is certainly not true at all.


Youtube.com is literally the #2 most popular website in the US. After google.com which is #1.

So yes, YouTube must absolutely be included. And it should be included as the second most-tested site.


YouTube is basically unwatchable, I have no idea how people spend so much time on it.


"YouTube", like "Twitter", has never been one thing, one culture. There's a zillion long tail creators making all kinds of unmonetized stuff because they want to.
