what is the alternative to youtube?
Hi! sorry for the random topic 😅
Youtube keeps getting more and more annoying. Is there a good other platform where to migrate? If people were to migrate, where would they go?
the thing I liked about youtube is the massive amount of content, and knowing that if I upload a video, it's really easy to watch by others. I like the ability to follow channels too.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm sure I'll get roasted for this, but just get YouTube Premium. As much content as people tend to consume on YT, I don't know why it's the only platform people seem so against paying for. YTP views are worth more to content creators. There's no ads. And you can get YT music with it too. Honestly, it's just a massive amount of content and nothing even comes close. I know the joke is "who would pay for YT Premium", but, at least in my house, it gets like 10x the use of Netflix and Hulu.
YTP views are worth more to content creators. There's no ads.
This is false, and I would argue that YTP generates significantly less revenue for content creators than even a dollar donation would over hundreds of videos.
YTP, when I had it, was still serving ads AND using trackers, which is not something I want to pay Google for.
For context, I have a YT channel with 3+ million views and tens of thousands of subscribers. YTP generates 1% of YouTube revenue, while ads make up the 99% difference.
Most people will have a handful of content creators that they regularly watch. If you took the YTP amount and split it between those creators as donations, you've made them far more than YouTube ads or YTP ever could.
That's my advice, as a content creator.
I find it too expnsive 😭 maybe Im just poor hahaj
If you can't afford it, you can't afford it. Streaming services aren't cheap. That being said, if you get a majority of your daily entertainment from something, like a lot of people seem to with YT, then I think it's worth the money. Like, it's easy to think of YT and Google as these evil corporations, and they totally are, but at the same time, hosting video at the scale that YT does isn't a charity, you know?
The only problem with this is that more and more channels are adding native ads to their vids, and YT Premium doesn't bypass those ads
Check Out SponsorBlock for chrome, Firefox, Safari...
Oh yeah I was referring to YouTube on TV. Gotta try smarttube next, last I checked it didn't exist then
SponsorBlock is brilliant. It's also integrated into the excellent SmartTube app for Android and Android TV, which also hides the normal ads, even if you don't have premium
