What do you all think of LBRY/odysee

I know it isn't currently federated, but it seems like a good yt alternative atm.

Wasn't it a basically unmoderated platform and therefore full of Nazis, science deniers and other social scum that got banned on youtube?
- If we're talking about alternatives to YouTube, should the bar for "quality" users really be those who haven't yet been banned from YouTube? Does it really matter? If you can choose what you look at, subscribe to, etc. I'm not sure I fully understand the fear, or your point as to those users being on the platform as well?
  
  You don't understand why a breeding ground where nazis can share conspiracy theories with other nazis and also reach susceptible idiots and children with their naziism might not be a good place where we all want to spend a bunch of time?
- Might be why some people think it's a good platform
- Before the reddit exodus lemmy was overrun with tankies.
  
  Is it better now? I feel like I'm still running into a lot of tankies...
I made a channel on Odysee, I like it, it's UI is good, it works, I think it is the best yt alternative at the moment, it just needs more people migrating there.
I think something is happening with lbry, I saw post earlier somewhere around here.
- They (Lbry inc) are being shut down for their crypto-token things. They didn't have kyc and the sec got very mad at them.
  
  How dare they not collect personal information!

- Lbry put out a message today saying they are done after losing a legal battle with the SEC
I prefer PeerTube
- I also like it, but it seems that not a lot of creators from yt, or even peertube creators make really good content. Of course, I could be wrong, and if I am, I'd appreciate if you'd give me some good peertube creators
  
  I find odysee having the same issue, but I agree with you.
It's one of the best Youtube alternatives going.
I tried lbry when they started in one of the Crypto peak moment, Haven't use them in years and not sure to still have my private key and token. Pretty surprised that it's still existing considering that their technology wasn't that amazing and requested a dedicated app
