Youtube operated at a loss for many years. I think it still does. Google has many products. They take the profit from one product to offset the losses from youtube.
If we’re talking about Econ 101 maybe Google shouldn’t have purchased a company that couldn’t turn a profit after nearly a decade without rent-seeking.
But I’m sure a random guy on Lemmy knows a bit more than one of the largest corporations on the planet. You should apply for a job there, they might like your ideas.

Ever hear of a loss-leader? Econ 101…

I don’t think you know what a loss leader is bc it doesn’t precisely apply here.
Also Google isn’t that hot of a place to work tbh.
YouTube has definitely been profitable for many years dude, I don’t know what your on about.
