Nebula at least for educational content
Nebula has about 10.000 videos, from only select creators. Youtube has around 1 billion videos, and everyone can upload. Nebula is not actually a Youtube alternative unless you're in one of two specific target audiences:
I don't see Nebula opening up their site to everyone and letting anyone upload content any time soon, and for that reason I don't see them as a Youtube competitor at all. They've found their niche with curated quality over quantity.
Fun fact: The difference between 10.000 and 1 billion is... around 1 billion.
I wouldn't really mind a smaller pool of videos, if it's guaranteed to have a standard of quality.
I'd even pay for YouTube if they offered such a service, where they curate their creators. E.g. I sometimes like to watch repair channels where someone tinkers with something. I have a handful of channels that I like for that... but what if there are many more that I just can't find?
