Short term solution: convince other users to use piped.video or FreeTube
Long term solution: convince creators to post on PeerTube

the second one will never work as there's no audience, nor money to gather on peertube

If popular creators start talking about PeerTube, there will eventually be an audience there, which means there will be money too.

how will there be money without advertisements? just rely on donations?

[-] lemmeee@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

I think most youtubers either have sponsors or Patreon. I don't think they rely on YouTube's ads anymore.

they don't only rely on ads but it probably still plays a significant role

For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

I made the icon using multiple creative commons svg resources, the banner is this.
