Yea, I think to get big as a youtube comedian you've gotta self promote and be smart about what videos you make (e.g. topical stuff, under 30 secs for r/youtubehaiku). But you can be legitimately funny and just fly under the radar if you're stuff isn't getting out there.
I've seen so many comedians in the same position hilarious but no one knows them :(
