Dumbest Question Ever ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It is used AS search engine because of the ridiculous amount of videos it has.
Now, answer me and yourself one question. What is search engine?

Oh, yeah, no need, I already quoted wikipedia one post above.
Does youtube fall in this category? nope. So here we go.

But again, yeah, people are using it as search engine because it stores millions videos

I would tend to agree, I end up using both google and YT as search engines. When I need to learn or know something that is best explained in a video I go to YT. When I need more straight to the point answers I go to google. YT is specialized content (obviously video) search engine and google is the whole ball of wax, the kitchen sink and an old boot.
 
The "search engine" on YouTube is a FEATURE of the social network.

It's not a search engine.........

Facebook has a search feature, it's not a search engine.

So does twitter, instagram and others

It's called "search box" :)
My wordpress blog has this box too :) and you wouldn't call my website a Search engine would you :)
 
Social media, because search is only a feature, and youtube has ranking system like other social platforms
