Why is it the best positioned company on earth to do so?
1. YouTube is being an * with content creators (See MonkeyJones ban and other creator permantly removed) 2. YouTube rewind was a mess 3. Competitors are better for consumers (and many competitors aren't in position to defeat YouTube)
pornhub is one of Mindgeek's properties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MindGeek I've never understood their business model - they seem to host endless illegally uploaded porn yet more and more porn seems to be being created.

Because it probably has the knowledge and infrastructure in place to do so. At least, that's what I inferred from the statement.
Off topic: I am genuinely curious, why doesn´t Pornhub create a Youtube competitor? it is probably the best positioned company on earth to do so. Any info as to why they haven´t done it or why it would be bad idea for them to do so?
PornHub is a Youtube competitor, as long as you want porn. Trying to expand beyond that seems like it would be off brand.
PH already has paying premium users, so maybe would be just something to keep them on PH-related websites through the end of their refractory period, hopefully directing them back to PH when they start getting horny again

If there’s one thing PornHub is good at, it’s generating positive PR for itself. I’m always very impressed how much of Reddit - often very skeptic all about corporate manipulation- will roll over to have its tummy tickled by Pornhub.
I think the only problem with this, is that there is still a solid 35% of the user base that doesn't want porn. So, there is a very fine line.
Honestly, those users were using the site even when porn and other such content was allowed, and clearly weren't bothered by existence on the platform overall. So if they allow it again, then so long as they don't promote these blogs to users who don't care for them, no one's gonna be bothered. It's like Reddit; yes it allows adult content, but since you're not forced to view subreddits that allow it, no one cares.
