Creating an infrastructure that could potentially ingest terrabytes of data per second, and then processing it into multiple resolutions, is a massive ask.
Especially for a new site that might not ever get picked up by users, much less creators.
I think the only people that have a hope in hell of having a success at starting a youtube competitor are the owners of the big porn sites, since they are in a similar, if much smaller than youtube business with regards to infrastructure demands and processing needs. . So they have the institutional knowledge and infrastructural inertia to get started easier than anyone else on the planet. assuming they want to do a SFW video site, which they may not want to do.
Yes, every time the topic comes up, this same idea comes up of making individuals bear the financial burden of hosting and bandwidth, without an ounce of understanding how that will never, ever, create a viable youtube alternative.
And once those problems come up, someone will have the great idea of gathering people into collectives to lower the prices and increase bargaining power.
Then after that someone will have the idea of reducing costs by moving their individual videos into the same rack, so the costs of hardware, storage, maintenance go down and stability and uptime goes up.
and before long you arrive back at a youtube like platform, and you've just become the equivalent of techbro reinventing the concept of a train for the 380th time.
Thats not a youtube alternative then. Its a torrent hub 🙄
Oh yeah, definitely. Spending 30 minutes to download a video over a torrent before you can watch it is tooooootally similar to youtube. Practically indistinguishable!
Wasn't there some professor that started uploading actual educational non-porn lectures on pornhub a while back?
I think I know who you are talking about, I recall seeing something about her making more money posting on pornhub than youtube because of greater advertising sharing or something.
And yet we’re having shit get censored everywhere else because aDvErTiSeRs. Clearly something doesn’t add up here.
You make it sound nefarious, but its most likely just an ability to be more generous with the revenue sharing compared to something thats 300x its size.
Afaik pornhub actually pays way more than YouTube. There are also lots of people uploading SFW content to the hub.
Yeah but hosting your self isn't that big a deal depending on your host. At least until you get into the millions of views.
We're talking about youtube competition, self hosting isnt ever going to compete with youtube.
I mean, you could just switch to porn exclusively.
Hey, maybe that was the plan all along! I just wanted to understand how to fix my car or watch cat videos and now I'm watching a video where some lady is stuffing herself full of, well, everything.
Big porn wins again dammit!
No, it's not. It's a massive request. When you punch out and leave the car lot, be sure to use regular English.
It’s a fairly common phrase. Language can change and have regional differences. This isn’t Quebec defending their weird version of French as the only “correct” way to speak.
That thar dude frum lemmy.ca, Imma laff ifn he done be Quebecois
What's "regular English"? Only words you personally know? https://www.oed.com/dictionary/ask_n1?tab=meaning_and_use
