You can try but I guess it's hard to get an actual community working. The feature is hard to find, probably full of spam and you can't talk to each other interactively. Would rather make a real discord, reddit, slack, or whatever. Those you can properly bookmark and you can talk to people

I have seen other YouTubers who had more followers you, who failed at setting up a community. I was a active member of the “learn electronics “ discord, but sadly not enough response to make it a success. Don’t underestimate how much time you will have put in. I would not abandon the idea, but to cooperate with other communities and YouTubers, so you have a big enough community to make it into a success.

No. Google's censoring is notorious for ill-trained or compromised grunts or bots. We need to minimize contact with them or we will end up WOKE

You dont need to involve more than you can, no responsibility really if you see too much moderation burden then close it

I don't know the answer to your question, but I will say that many people who watch a video will see the comments below the video, but probably will not see comments posted elsewhere. So if making a "community" will lead people (including you) to post fewer comments under the video, that seems like a bad trade.

Should I start a community here on YouTube?
I found out a few days ago that YouTube as a Community feature. This is a Discord style community where anyone can post questions and discussions on electronics.
I'm answering quite a few questions in video comments, but maybe a central place is better.
I wonder if you guys would like to have this, let me know in this poll. I also have no idea what I would be getting into, maybe this creates a ton of work if you get really enthusiastic.
Best regards and happy designing,
Hans Rosenberg
