<b>Live VOD replays are getting a quiet distribution kicker</b>
Word is the replay of a livestream is being surfaced in browse more aggressively than a standard upload of the same length — a source thinks YouTube is leaning into live to compete on real-time, and the VOD inherits some of that priority.
For a channel like yours: even a low-effort 20-minute live Q&A, trimmed and left as a VOD, may out-distribute a polished upload right now. Worth a cheap test before the window closes — these distribution quirks rarely last more than a quarter.
Confidence: low-medium. Single source, plausible given the live push.
