Vimeo wringing their hands thinking this is their chance.

Vimeo literally charges money from creators per video and per TB of bandwidth to host their video.

YouTube hosts for free, and actually pays creators money, to the point where many people have made their careers.

Nobody is switching from YouTube to Vimeo.

I know, the joke is nobody's switching and Vimeo can't win.

Vimeo seems to have a different demographic in mind.

Not only demographic but a whole different model that very few companies use unless their content breaks YT guidelines. That's the punchline.
