Why are there never any comments on these videos?

Their content is junk, that’s why. There is comments, but they put out content all day 100s of video so it gets washed away by the newer uploads instantly. They have a lot of other channels that get views.. but their news is obviously biased for biden like msnbc. Also they promote a lot of cryptoscammers

This guy has confused a platform with a marketplace. Windows is a platform, ebay is a marketplace. Real estate online is a marketplace.

Big tech companies are platforms. Who is this guy getting his definitions from? Get better sources boomer.
If you are a person and you get attention off of social media, than by definition and common sense its a platform. Also big tech is funded by public dollars in the 8 to 9 figures now, so its not private at all, especially for being the main source of information and events.

I don’t think it’s healthy to discourage risk taking to create something new and innovative.

This guy is so wrong. There are only a handful of platform companies in the world. Google is a search and data platform there is no competitor, Facebook(meta) is the social media platform, if you want to reach a broad targeted audience as a business or brand there is no alternative to Facebook and Instagram. Amazon is the ecommerce platform. These are companies that have built effect network monopolies that allow to extract above average value. I have never heard anyone refer to Compass as a real estate platform.

What is different, is when a platform is decentralized.
