I recommend Peertube. There's not much there yet, but myself and others are trying.
Also, did you know you can upload your video to Peertube and have YouTube pull it via RSS? That's what I'm doing!
All of my stuff you'll find on Peertube and I don't have to do anything else to get it up on YouTube.
No one will create content without ad revenue. Peertube is doomed to fail.
This is a terrible take, as most content creators I watch already cannot survive off of Youtube ad revenue and rely on third-party monetization, like Patreon subscriptions.
Besides the fact that plenty of people make content for free, from the simple love of creating something.
Didn’t YouTube start without ads? Was doing fine back then, right?
I don’t think it had prerolls during the flash days but it had banner ads as far back as I can remember
Flash..... flash macromedia... the golden age.
Well, no. It's been losing money for years. But I doubt this will make it profitable.
Lots of people did it on YouTube for years. Even more on other platforms.
