But on the flipside, we'd get monetisation, an official app and be allowed to use copyrighted music.

It wouldn't matter though, since NG would be killed off within a decade.


litterally youtube

No you can't monetize it. Sorry pal but that revenue belongs to NBC ;^D


Easiest way to get featured would either be storytime animation or content farms.

I don't think something too important would happen, it's not like if they would treat NG like with Youtube

I'd rather see Newgrounds shut down before that ever happens.

No disrespect to Newgrounds but I doubt Google would be interested in such a secluded platform. Buying Newgrounds isn't like buying Twitter or Instagram. For a company their size it's not so much risky as it is a waste of money, especially when they already have Youtube. It'd be shut down after like 2 years. Maybe less.

We would lose the porn. And we'll have over 80% of the normal conted be overshadowed by mind-numbingly boring, uninspired content, with cleavage taking up more than 40% of the screen the entire time.

I hope you're right. REALLY hope you are right.


The video content on the website would not just be limited to animation, and like most social media, the algorithm is probably buried people with real talent and promotes clout chaser and clickbait for the sake of making people angry for sake of increase engagement

But ads with heavy nudity that is!
