~~⚠️ De-clickbait-ify the youtube titles or your post will be removed!~~
~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~
~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~
~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

It's not likely to ever happen. The business model just isn't sustainable by itself. The costs are through the roof, and ads don't pay enough to pay for it and pay creators. Any competitor would be far more restricted on who and what can be uploaded.
Definitely, I don't see another platform popping up where anyone can upload basically unlimited amounts of anything. It's kinda insane that Google even allows that still haha
But Floatplane is at least a high-quality platform that sufficiently supports creators without ads (subscription instead)
