And perhaps other video sites may be able to catch up to Youtube

you're right about that one

While there's likely the obvious video sites one could bring up, one site in particular popped up in my mind - VideoBash, launched in 2010 by then-owner of Pornhub, Manwin (known now as MindGeek), which OTL barely seemed to have been known in the mainstream and quietly went offline sometime between late 2017 and early-to-mid 2018.

MindGeek is shady as hell, but with YouTube's slowed down corporate interests TTL, and Manwin owner Fabian Thylmann going on a path to buy up many pornographic companies following financing from April 2011 onwards, it makes me wonder whether VideoBash would've attracted some of YouTube's OTL corporate nature had Thylmann somehow figured it would attracting them. Sites like Vimeo weren't about to become big hitters in the same light as YouTube, Dailymotion is too flexible for any potential corporate overlords, sites like Metacafe are restricting, and sites like NicoNico and bilibili aren't about to greatly expand beyond. Would be interesting to see how this impacts Manwin's continued development.
