Not “afraid” to “ditch” a monopoly. It’s a monopoly.

I don’t understand why people are so afraid to ditch YouTube

If you want to transfer every video to a different service, be my guest.

I mean, it gives you tools to export your videos out.

Cool. You should probably get started. There’s a lot of videos.

I don’t have any youtube videos to export. Do you want me to export yours?

A lot of creators I watch are YouTube exclusive with their content.
If they were on Peertube, I’d delete YouTube in a heartbeat.
But I also understand that a lot of them make their living off ad revenue, so I don’t blame them for staying.

You can also check out nebula. A good chunk of them are there.

Why commit to them instead of finding alternative creators on a different platform?

There is no substitute for Hank Green.

Fine. Name alternatives for what YouTube is mostly used for.
We are talking vlogs on huge amounts of topics, product reviews and unboxings, reaction videos, how-to tutorials, gaming videos (walkthroughs, live streams, and etc.), ASMR and relaxation content, educational and explainer videos for science, history and finance… and so on.
There’s simply no true alternative.
