The same way we get good software from a ´community´ which is explicitly copyleft.

The best way to use platforms like Peertube and Odysee is by using it as a primary source, with Youtube and Vimeo essentially playing the role of CDN. Should the censors not like your video for $reasons they can block them 'till they turn ultraviolet but they can not deny anyone access to them. Make sure to advertise your alternative distribution channel(s), use the same channel names and video titles so they can be found through regular web search and you're set [1].

- mattl 5y agoI think that’s a bad idea because I don’t want people to think watching video on a computer is okay. Video (movies) should be enjoyed on a big screen with a good screen. These platforms should give creators a way to prohibit viewing on small screens, Linux, etc.

- midasuni 5y agoWhy does absolute size matter? Viewing angle is surely far more important, with something made for THX being optimised for 40° And as for blocking the most popular video playing platform out there - at least for large screens - the only question would be “why”
