i absolutely despise youtube. these fuckers are putting ads on paused videos now, and then this.
they will never get better. only worse. we need regulations badly.
We need a competitor badly.
Paying Nebula subscriber here 🙋♂️
Pony up or your call for a competitor doesn’t mean anything. People don’t want ads? Fine. There has to be another revenue stream. Server capacity costs money, making a website and app cost money, and video creators need to eat.
Peertube/Odysee exist, even if they are relatively niche.
Competitor with no content, users is not a competitor. Youtube should be forced to share content they do not own. Just for the sake of competition.
The content isn't the problem. It's the delivery system. No one else has the storage and network capacity that Youtube has. And as a result of that, no one else has the built-in audience Youtube has. Putting your videos on YT is simply the best way to get views.
I use odysee, and so far it's been nice.
rumble is pretty good
fuck off out of here with your nazi platforms
Pretty much every Alternative Tech platform also has a huge far right population Lemmy is an exception to this but has a decently sized far left population instead I dunno how it is now but a lot of people complained a couple of weeks ago about Nazis joining Bluesky and one of the guys from Bluesky covering them
that's true, but platforms like rumble were created to be homes to the far right. we shouldn't encourage their existence.
Whatever happened to dailymotion?
Dailymotion does not allow for commenting anymore. That's why I stopped using it.
Does anyone really post anything to Dailymotion besides blatantly unauthorized TV stuff? I can't imagine it'd be very good vibes for anyone trying to make an honest living with original content over there.
I used it a bit because its also on Grayjay but its pretty terrible and focuses a lot on big media than individual people
iirc they tried to become a tiktok clone, no idea how it went but considering i never see anyone talk about it i doubt it went very well
