Not examples of Youtubers that are better than pachter, examples of youtubers that aren't after the money.

I dont think we cant tell who has enabled monitization but obviously those who upload copyrighted content wont have (I assume google doesnt pay them even if they signed up for it) and theres plenty of people uploading things like football highlights and movies just for the benefit of others, not themselves. Then theres people who make their own content but dont monetize it. I do not believe 100% of youtubers (those who have uploaded videos) are earning money from them and if this option was taken I dont think all of them would stop making videos overnight. Clearly a lot of them are attention whores and want to be celebrities which may possibly be a bigger factor than the peanuts they earn from the adverts on their videos.

No not 100% of course, but it would shrink considerably, most adult people don't have an abundance of time to create a ton of content, if there's nothing in it for them. Money makes the world go round, face it.

Money may make the world go round but that doesn't mean that every person in the world is consumed by greed and the pursuit of financial gain. Not everyone has Ayn Rand mentality. There are plenty of artists on youtube and in the world that do it simply because they are passionate about it and it brings them joy.
