Would be nice. We have decentralised replacements for Twitter and Reddit now we just need one for YouTube that’s beyond the reach of the corporate assholes. Imagine being able to swear within the first 30 seconds of a video and not get buried where it will never be seen.
vimeo.com
Vimeo is not an alternative to Youtube. It's a submitter-paid platform. If people had to pay money to upload their videos to youtube, it would never have become popular.
No its not anyone can upload to vimeo. You get extra perks if you pay. I dont pay them anything, and heres a video i uploaded like 10 years ago, still there. https://vimeo.com/7464283

No ads before, after, or on your video

A free plan on Vimeo limits you to a single seat (the owner). On a free plan, you may upload or create up to two (2) videos per month, allowing up to 25 videos in total. This cap is in place for the lifetime of the free account and does not reset or renew. After you reach 25 videos, you will need to upgrade your account to upload or create more videos. Learn more about video cap limits.
A free plan on Vimeo stays free forever. As long as you are following our guidelines and logging in every once in a while, your account will remain intact.
We consider accounts that have not been used for a full year to be inactive, and we reserve the right to remove inactive accounts. We’ll notify you in advance if your account is in danger of deletion due to inactivity and you’ll have an opportunity to reactivate it.
On mobile devices have a look on newpipe and libretube, you'll find them over f-droid or as APK directly. It's been months since I've watched ads. Don't forget to donate, it's very easy, even if it's only one buck, they're fighting for a good cause.
Nebula
Nebula is great, but it should be pointed out it is a paid service.
I don't know how serious it is, but Peer Tube is aspiring to be what you're looking for - a YouTube service that allows independent instances and federation. Here's the wiki detail.
This is the Fediverse alternative.
I think that it's going to be the hardest service to run on the Fediverse, as the bandwidth costs from streaming videos are the highest. I'd think that stuff like lemmy/kbin being an alternative to Reddit, or Mastodon to Twitter is going to be easier to do.
Obviously it depends on the scale but part of peertube's viability relies on the fact that it's peer to peer sharing the video with you, so it's not just that host you download from, but any host that has a copy of that video, which overall gives the network a tradeoff between storage space and bandwidth
You just have to set up the sponsorblock in the configs, it comes disabled
Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
