the amount of money would be so staggering as to be impossible for anyone but another giant evil company to have a hope at being able to afford it… FACK
Comment on YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 4 days agoTheres a reason that youtube has no real competitor.
because the amount of data that gets uploaded to youtube every day, every hour, is unfathomable.
I dont even know if its possible to create a proper competitor to youtube at this point. Just from a data center/harddrive point of view alone, the amount of money would be so staggering as to be impossible for anyone but another giant evil company to have a hope at being able to afford it.

There is. People just wouldn’t like it. Lowering the resolution and framerates massively to save on space. The nerds (derogatory) would trash the platform everywhere they can have a voice if it doesn’t support 4k 120fps, though.

Even if you limit it to 720p, if it were to be even a quarter as popular as youtube, the bandwith and storage requirements would still be astronomical.
