YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
Odyssey is alright. Plenty of generic creators syncing YouTube channels to there, including some surprisingly big ones. I follow them through the subscribe via RSS option though so I can’t say for sure what lies outside the bubble of creators I follow
PeerTube is one of them, but usually you will find it under any other name like TILVids and Kraut.Zone, as the developers dont have an open instance.
But be aware that since its much more resource intensive to host a video platform, there may be fewer of them, and also the content format seems to work out less in this world for now.
Right! I’m enjoying all these FOSS alternatives lately. I really hope they’re here to stay.
Is there a YouTube alternative that isn’t an alt-right cesspit?
