    Good thing we have Youtube alternatives. The two biggest ones are Odysee & Rumble. Also we have Peertube. The problem with Peertube is people don’t use it. So it haves less content on it.

    If you’re going to watch Youtube, use a Frontend. For same reason Privacy Guides don’t have Grayjay on it.

        Its got a lot of those types for sure, but it has the most normal content of any alt video platform.

        Rumble isn’t any better. It’s where my dad gets his COVID conspiracy material after folks got kicked off other platforms.

        It’s sad that Odysse has turned to that because it was where I was thinking about uploading content.

        That’s what happens to all alternatives at the start, only really the content that isn’t suitable for the main platform migrates there. It requires a mass exodus because of something major, like what happened with reddit 3rd party apps or twitter/X & the block change , to get enough regular users there.

        Lemmy literally exists because Dessalines, a “long time Marxist-leninist” decided that “Fuck the while supremacist Reddit admins” and made an alternative to host r/communism because reddit is run by an “anti-tankie scum”.
