Works if you are only delivering live videos. I've never been able to get into Twitch because there is so much dead time without anything interesting happening.

Works if you are only delivering live videos. I've never been able to get into Twitch because there is so much dead time without anything interesting happening. Patreon only works if you already have established fan base that is willing to pay for your content. It does not help with discoverability at all. Youtube is still the king of video no matter how you slice it.

> Youtube is still the king of video no matter how you slice it. For now. Rumble might or might not break through to mainstream. Same with those fediverse solutions for different reasons. Vimeo already works beautifully and is clean in every way AFAIK.

  Except Vimeo is not really competing with YouTube, and has a strict restrictions on the type of videos it accepts.

    Vimeo competes in one segment. Rumble in another. Peertube etc in a third. Self-hosting by media companies in a fourth. Etc.

Ah you know I am thinking of Vimeo I think. (The producers I follow upload only prerecorded material.) I guess that demonstrates how little brand recognition the YouTube competitors have :)
