Great idea, thanks for doing the experiment.
Played most of the vid, doesn't seem like it'd register though.
Watched it too myself, full way through. Let's see boi's, this is some real science bitch
Also watched " Elf Squad Live Stream 3" on invidious to see how that goes
Neither video has views still, science works!
Yay for science. Is it possible that it would be on a delay? Probably not but I have no idea how this works so I rather ask.
I've let it play for more than one minute through Piped, let's see what happens.
No views still
If you aren't watching ads or going through youtube red then you aren't directly contributing financially to the creators even if it does count.
I'd argue it's worth it though, since you are a tiny drop in the view bucket
Of course, direct support is always better than the fraction of a penny you give them through ads
