In addition, they are opening up more ways to join the partner program and are also setting up programs that will give creators the ability to make money off of the company's growing TikTok alternative, YouTube Shorts. Only time will tell how this will affect the streamer economy, but at least you can get paid when you post a thirst-trap dance on the platform.
