The formats that YouTubers use have changed as well, since a lot of YouTube channels usually work from some sort of office and shoot from a studio they have been forced to record their content from home, turning bedrooms and home offices into studios, it’s also odd how there has been an influx of channels moving to a streaming format maybe it is to make recording from home easier? I’m not sure, but what it has done is made talking to other like-minded people easier, instead of a passive messaging system when you can put a message on a channel’s pre-recorded video you can now actively talk to the people who are watching the stream together, it has created some closely knitted communities.
