Aagh you almost made my brain forget how to spell "niche." Please don't do that to my brain.
Thats how you know im not AI. Also I cant spell. woops.
Vimeo is on the way out, so Peertube is probably your best bet but it's nowhere near what anyone who relies on an audience would consider adequate.
What's happening with Vimeo? I haven't used it in an age.
but it’s nowhere near what anyone who relies on an audience would consider adequate.
Well, we’ve got to start somewhere. If we more people post there then more of an audience will come
Oh I fully agree, but for someone who needs to make money, it makes more sense to post to multiple places including PeerTube instead of just PeerTube.
That’s fair enough. It would be nice if on all the other mediums the filmmaker could say “hey the best way to watch me is on Peertube.” But unfortunately it looks like the only way to monetize on Peertube would be through crowd contribution platforms, such as Patreon, which might cause issues for some people who want to put their videos up there. The upside to this tho is that there’s no ads and no paywalls, so I think its a tradeoff is worth making
PeerTube or Odysee.
If you’re making content for fun and not trying to make money off it then PeerTube would be the way to go. You can help build the catalog. If you want to make money then unfortunately YouTube is kinda the only way.
I've been thinking too, that if I generate content I should post to both services, but mention the better one. Like "if you want no ads, I'm on peertube as well". Naturally drive people there.
what's wrong with nebula?
If you make vaguely leftist content, there is means.tv
OP wants to post videos, not watch them. Nebula is invite only and generally only invites those with a decent body of work.
Nebula is a Zionist platform. Which is why Second Thought switched to means.tv

Do you have any context on nebula being zionist? I'm not questioning your statement, I'm just curious and lazy.

Ah sorry, didn't play the video. Like I said, I'm lazy.
edit: To be clear, I've watched it
It's JT saying that Nebula wanted both-sides Zionism for his videos on Gaza.
What’s the secret handshake entry
Have a popular, wildly successful YouTube channel with slickly-edited videos. The second-lwbel handshake is to be personal friends or professional collaborators with somebody already in Nebula.
Unfortunately, we are not allowed to tell you...
Is this the club that George Carlin was telling us about?
