I thought it would be nice to hear about everyone’s favourite European content creators. (Not for self-promotion)
Platform doesn’t matter but if you know a good channel on peertube etc. even better.
How is this relevant?
Content creators often discuss and review products and services. They are the first stop for many people when they are looking for information about something. I think it’s important to grow viewership for European content creators which in turn would grow demand for more EU wide product reviews etc.
More than a commercial point-of-view – news, travel tips, culture and just daily life are things we should conciously share and take an interest in here in Europe. Again, build an EU wide viewership and a feedback cycle for European content.
