YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy

Stop using youtube.
not just stop, rip every half decent video from there and save it somewhere else. Losing everything in youtube is library of alexandria level loss.

Not just catalog for viewing. What other platform can I use as cloud storage for video files for free? I have hundreds of hours of stuff uploaded there.

So, sundar pinchai can be added to the list of CEOs that suck?
Because a lot of the time, it's weird that when the company does nasty shit, nobody names him as the head asshole in charge the way that other companies and ceos get handled.
The dude has been in the driver's seat for pretty much every major deterioration of Google/alphabet for years.

Because the user experience is horrible for non-creators.
User experience can be improved pretty easily.
The important parts are already there.

Do it fast, they're trying to kill yt-dlp with DRM.

I don't think it's possible for PeerTube to scale to a size where it would be capable of competing with Youtube.
PeerTube is just software. It's a decentralized network. It doesn't have to scale to that size. You can have a million servers handling the storage and streaming in a more efficient method and democratize the bandwidth.

Store on a hard drive instead.

totally agree with reading more. text is easy to consume, easy to store, (somewhat) easy to verify (if sources are provided), and it keeps (if using dead trees for storage). ever since the pandemic i started reading more and must say i really like it
Some content lends itself well to written format. Lots of content does not.

What international alternatives exist for YouTube? And I understand RedNote as an alternative for TikTok, but YouTube fills a little bit of a different niche.
Peertube is the obvious candidate, but I'm not sold on the content.
I use nebula.tv, many of the creators I like are there too. You pay somerhing, but their business model is not too bad imho.
Floatplane is somewhat similar, but LMG is involved, which I don't love.

Been on that list since he became a CEO

True.
Peertube has been hamstrung by a very poorly-made design decision early on.
It's my understanding that peertube copies all of the content from hosts it federates with. That's a huge waste of storage and the main reason why most peertube instances hardly federate with anything.
Instead, peertube developers should implement the option for servers to duplicate data, or simply load the data through a link to a server that hosts it.
It's still young and they've done a pretty good job with everything except this fundamental flaw. Hopefully if enough people hear about this idea and promote it, we can see it implemented and then Peertube can really take off.

Don't forget current Youtube CEO Neal Mohan and former Youtube CEO Susan Wojcicki!

Showing how truly performative their big “ally” push was during the pandemic. All their BLM and diversity support was just as performative. Big corporations are just sycophantic monsters riding trends. Avoid them where possible.

That's optional. You have to opt in to mirror a server.

If it's free, you are the product (ad views), not the consumer (ad sales). Suck it up and pay for hard drives.

Most of them are literally Nazis. Anytime I go to youtube and finish a video all the suggested videos to watch after are obscene "anti-woke" trash.
The youtube to right-wing pipeline is real.
The top right video is a video absolutely dumpstering Tesla and calling it a worthless stock. Your recommendations will also highly depend on what video you were just watching, could it be that users who watch your video also happen to watch these other videos? Is that the platforms fault?
-
We really should be working together to upload content from youtube to peertube instances.
Don't ask for permission. Just do it. Civilly disobey.
And who is going to pay for the bandwidth and storage space on those peertube instances?
I mean, I too want to get away from YouTube, but it is going to be very difficult to convince people to pay for what YouTube gives away for free.

dumpstering Tesla and calling it a worthless stock.
Oh, so it's just wall street dick sucking and pretending the whole "market" isn't just a rigged game? Counts as right-wing slop to me.
Is that the platforms fault?
Considering we have a fuck-ton of evidence from research that it isn't just what other people watch that determines it: Yes, it is actually. Sorry these aren't fucking videos so that you'll actually pay attention to them.
