It’s not that creators won’t upload because there are no viewers. It’s because on other platforms there is no way to earn money. “Because there are no viewers” doesn’t make sense, because it costs a creator literally nothing to upload a video multiple times, to more platforms, instead of only once, which would theoretically only increase their reach in total. However, creators want their viewers to watch on YouTube because that’s where the money is earned.
