In my opinion we need to support other websites like odysee and peertube. If everyone here continue to watch content on yt we won't have a real alternative. This is my thought. For me the best alternative right now is odysee and I'm trying to watch only creator there. (If u want a list of content creator I can write it down)

No moderation. Every time I've looked at it it's been full of alt-right bullshit. The people running it pretty much have to know, so are apparently fine with it. I'm not.

Not a good argument.

Just use RSS for what you want from Odysee, Peertube and even Bit-chute. Then forget the rest. It’s what I’ve done. I’ve got no problem with it. Really is that simple.

I have an even better idea, I won't use services that are fine with that sort of content. Why should I inflate their user count and encourage others to use their site?

I don't want anything from Odysee.

Then you have no right to complain over how Google exploits you. Your argument is a weak one. Is it just me, or do people on forums and such just go to whine online for the sake of it? 🙂

How is google exploiting me? I'm using peertube.

It's just you, mostly I see people show up to try and convince people they're very smart, and then end up looking foolish. 😁

And I see people (you for example) who love drama as liars. Because why are you on here crying over YouTube still then if Peertube is enough? If anyone is looking foolish, it's you. 😁

Where'd I complain about youtube? I'm going to bow out. You're not even keeping up with the conversation right in front of you.

You block me and then unblock me to reply again? What a drama skank you are. Proof you use the mainstream platforms still; you seek out drama online because you clearly got nothing better to do. Other than let social media algorithms control your life.

I made a valuable suggestion to use RSS to take want you wanted to follow on platforms like Odysee. You threw it back in my face for the sake of a petty circle jerk conversation. You just remind why people online are such losers (more so than ever today). Blocking you now, loser. You're not worth any further effort. And if you reply after I blocked you, that just proves my point. Now, doesn't it?
