Peertube/Odysee exist, even if they are relatively niche.
Competitor with no content, users is not a competitor. Youtube should be forced to share content they do not own. Just for the sake of competition.
The content isn't the problem. It's the delivery system. No one else has the storage and network capacity that Youtube has. And as a result of that, no one else has the built-in audience Youtube has. Putting your videos on YT is simply the best way to get views.
I wish they'd nationalize stuff like YouTube, and online data storage, etc
I use odysee, and so far it's been nice.
I'd like to move to PeerTube, but I mostly just post stupid memes, and game clips on my YouTube. And as generic as that is I don't really know what instance to go with. Most instances seem to either focus on tech, or education. And that's good to have but I want a more general instance from a uploader pov.
rumble is pretty good
fuck off out of here with your nazi platforms
Pretty much every Alternative Tech platform also has a huge far right population Lemmy is an exception to this but has a decently sized far left population instead I dunno how it is now but a lot of people complained a couple of weeks ago about Nazis joining Bluesky and one of the guys from Bluesky covering them
that's true, but platforms like rumble were created to be homes to the far right. we shouldn't encourage their existence.
Mastadon has a huge far right population?
Gab and Truth.social are Mastodon instances, just defederated by everyone else in case of the former, and not federating and pretending they're their own thing in case of the latter.
Did not know that. But that that's exactly how it is supposed to work.
Poast is listed as one of the biggest instances You just don't notice it on Mastadon since a lot of them are defederated
I am apolitical
Well that's not true. You're very pro-genocide, as long as it's against Palestinians. That's pretty political.
Not really, i just don’t want to see another islamist state
