YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy

As reported from a substack writer… 🤮
Substack platforms and monetizes Nazis.
Oh sorry, didn't know about that

Go outside.

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
Hell yeah. Let's hear it for the readers. Let's hear it for footnotes. Let's hear it for references. Let's hear it for bibliographies. Let's hear it for the more in depth ideas that can be explored via text than video or audio.

It's not an easy answer, but the best way I've found so far is to use GrayJay.
If I find that one of the content creators I follow on YouTube happen to post their content on any other platform, I switch my subscription to that platform.
Besides YouTube they support Nebula, Twitch, Odysee, PeerTube, Dailymotion, Bitchute, Kick, BiliBili, Rumble, Patreon, and more.

No one wants to talk about PeerTube?
Because the user experience is horrible for non-creators.
-
Lots of popular Youtubers are already there, and they strip the sponsor segments out of their content too.
The popular YouTubers are trash tho

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.

I don't think it's possible for PeerTube to scale to a size where it would be capable of competing with Youtube.

This post did not contain any content.
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.

Maybe people could read more?
Nobody needs this endless "content" slop.
For real people need to get a grip if they can't survive without it. They're addicted.
Maybe people could read more?
Hell yeah I love audiobooks /s

Catalog of what?
-
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.

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.

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.

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.
