Imagine YouTube but publicly funded. No horrible AI targetted ads without any restraint. No monopolistic control over half the worlds viewing devices to control what's installed.
Instead, public good free informational content.

Now Imagine it costs 100x what it costs google to run, but it has 1/100th the features and is down often.
If everything was geared towards efficiency, there wouldn't be any investigative journalism or open source software.
Everyone would be shooting for their own gain and we would all be worse of as a result.
Why 100x the cost? What features are so important besides functional URLs to videos?
Sharing videos publicly online is hard and Youtube is fake democratization for market capture.
As long as I'm imagining, I'd also like a pony.
