There has got to be some alternative to YouTube. First it was gun videos, then “hate speech”, then medical videos or anything that doesn’t tow their line with the virus, and now they are screwing with people (the Peak Prosperity guy) discussing peer reviewed literature.
- stOneskull 6y agoThere are. People just have to nourish them. With content, presence and donations. And rather than one big youtube alternative, it's probably better having many places focusing on types of video, eg. Twitch or Dlive with live streams, that provide better experience in that area than youtube. Bitchute is in an interesting place where that'll often be where banned people from youtube will be. With enough nourishment from people, the video makers might not even go to youtube in the first place. These alternatives can chew into youtube as small goblins rather than one big one.
- marcinzm 6y agoAny alternative to youtube faces the same challenges that drove youtube to do what it does. More specifically if they are significantly more relaxed around X, all the really crazy people doing X (ie: why youtube banned X in the first place) will go there causing that platform to get a reputation for being only about X.
