Comment on The YouTube Alternative Nobody's Talking About ! Peertube
MoonlightFox@lemmy.world 12 hours agoConsider using Grayjay, you can combine creators from various sources to one app. Including YouTube, Peertube, Dailymotion, Odysee and lots of others.
I subscribe to some people on PeerTube and Dailymotion (only news orgs) alongside my Youtube subs, so that I am not only relying on YouTube

I do, but the desktop version is still barebones compared to FreeTube or the Odysee webpage. It’s great on mobile, though!
And as for Peertube, I guess part of the problem is that it doesn’t feel as connected as other Fediverse services seem to feel. Not sure why, it just feels really disjointed to me.

I don’t think PeerTube will take a significant market share or become a lot more popular until it gets some sort of monetization scheme in place. Maybe if bandwidth for 1080p is basically free in 10-20 years.
Just a friendly headsup about Odysee. You are probably aware already and are selecting content carefully based on this, but Odysee hosts a lot of content that is considered disinformation, hate speech, far-right etc.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odysee -> Moderation.

I agree with you on Peertube. I’d love to see it grow but I just don’t see it doing so until things change significantly.
Also, I don’t believe in censorship of legal speech protected under the US constitution so the moderation issue doesn’t bother me. I just block channels and accounts I don’t like.
