[YouTube Alternatives] Here is a list of video platforms, that I never see mentioned.
-
the problem about replacing youtube is that there is over 10 years worth of videos and history in youtube. Not only do you need new content to appear somewhere else, the old content has to be available too or majority will not even consider alternatives. And if enough people wont even consider them there is no way the alternatives will gain content creators.
Google has us on iron grip with this one and it can most likely ONLY be broken through legislation. It isnt really realistic to even start downloading worthwhile stuff from youtube and putting it elsewhere, though it would be better than nothing.
YouTube has more like 20 years of history

I am resharing it to benefit the highest amount of people.
I wanted to list and ask for platforms that can substitute YouTube.
Here it's:
- NASA+, Space and Astronomy Videos.
- Vimeo, Professional Videos and Documentaries.
- TED, Talks and presentations.
- PeerTube, there is not a lot of videos, but some creators upload there.
- ARTE, Euro documantries and analysis.
- RedBull TV, Sports related videos.
- RTE Player, Journalism.
- BBC videos, diverse topics.
- NFB Films, Canadian Films.
I've been using Tubular to watch YouTube videos anonymously and without ads.

I'm using Grayjay because I can follow PeerTube and Patreon content in one single place

half to most of these aren't even youtube alternatives, as far as i can guess they're just video hosting for that specific site and its content

Are ARTE documentaries also available in English? That's cool. Thought it was only German and French.

Not all of them is available in English, only some.

yep, having that under control of one corporation is unacceptable. Imagine if some corporation owned pyramids or caves full of paintings by first humans to such extent they could grind it all to gravel if they wanted. Right now they are preventing fair use of the content too, by forbidding downloads of the videos.
Google has way too much control anyway, since google account has become too important for many people and getting it suspended would mean catastrophe to such individual.

Most of the alternatives are too small and unpopular, or have paid subscriptions, so most people won't even think of going there, and YouTubers won't even think of switching to alternatives because they will lose more than they gain. It's sad, but Google has a strong grip here.

RedBull supports far-right politics, not recommended to consume anything they make in any way.
When superficially labeling anyone as "far right" for having a different view without understanding their nuances, it shows that you demand all people must be forced into conforming living under a tyrannical dictatorship because dissent is never allowed.

There will never be any video platform that attracts talent until they pay uploaders. Every YouTube channel that has paid staff will never post anyone else, except a few on Runble. Either buy a subscription on other view websites or YouTube is the only option for anyone to not work for free. It seems that Twitter is starting to pay users but for serious information, shows, and livestreams, everyone watches on YouTube. Again, start paying out of your own cash if you want other sites to build something. I do see an alternative in the future due how giant YouTube is and its censorship of unapproved thoughts it's going to implode on itself.

NASA+ is amazing.
If you check, NFB, check 9ut The Cat Came Back, and The Log Driver.

There are also lots of smaller video platforms built by youtubers. They publish advertiser friendly (censored) exits on YT, but put the real versions on their own platform. This way, fans can support their favorite channels, and get to see videos that are too cool for YT.
Yes. I support one youtuber that way. They put extended content there and stuff youtube would sensor. Do not actually use it that much but it is a nice thank you one gets for supporting them.

On Nebula, the channel also gets a certain share of the revenue if you watch the video on that platform instead of on YT. Some channels actually publish their videos early on Nbula, while other channels make exclusive videos too. Either way, avoiding YT, and favoring other platforms benefits everyone.
