Do you still watch YouTube? Who do you follow?
Do you still watch YouTube? Who do you follow?
It seems that everything turned into scams, aggressive self marketing and just click bait irrelevant content. I liked finance videos, but every creator sounds like "the world will end soon" or "my secret method to make 1 million per week day trading stocks/forex/crypto."
Content aimed at culture (movies/series) also behave the same way, throwing a bit of politics into the mix. Always the same incendiary click bait title spewing a bunch of nonsense that has nothing the story, setting characters or other topics relevant to the piece.
Is there anything that can be saved on that platform? It has gotten so bad that I'm start to think that Tiktok and Twitter both have better content than YouTube. At least in those platforms you can find a random dude writing an essay in a series of 20 tweets on why an increase of mantis is related to the global surge of ballpoint pen prices.

Less now that I have this wonderful extension:

But unfortunately there's some creators you can't find elsewhere yet.
Nick Johnson who does amazing (and kind of depressing) videos showing you all around the cities and towns in America: https://www.youtube.com/@NickJohnson
AItrepreneur for AI tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/@Aitrepreneur
Ordinary Things for hilarious deep dives: https://www.youtube.com/@OrdinaryThings

I'll google later, but what's Odysee?
It's like YouTube but the only good content is about Linux. The rest is deplatformed racists.

Well that's not great...
It's a youtube alternative, the best I've used so far. Still need a lot more creators to make the switch or at least mirror, but it's growing slowly.
Odysee is a blockchain-based media platform. We host all kinds of media such as images, articles, PDFs, audio files, etc., but we're best known for hosting videos.
Odysee seeks to recapture the spirit of the 2000s internet. Rather than favoring corporate content such as late night talk shows, network television, and TV news, Odysee is a place for everyone, including independent creators.
Referring to Odysee as "blockchain-based" isn't just sloganeering. All content on Odysee is hosted on the LBRY network, which Odysee then pulls from. For those interested in blockchain, this is really cool. For those who don't know a thing about blockchain, that's totally fine because Odysee requires zero blockchain knowledge to use.
