Yeah, that'll be hard. I'm trying to use Peertube but network effect is big on YT (not sure if that's the right expression here, noone is using Peertube, everyone is on YT).

I'm sending my videos on my Peertube and Youtube. I send the link for Peertube a few days before Youtube, so people following me would have more interest on looking at it on PT earlier but the numbers can't be beaten : between 5 and 20 views on PT against 1K / 2K on Youtube.

Whats the link? I though peer tube comments where compatible with lemmy.

try odysee, some creators mirror their yt vids there

I like Odysee, but there's a lot of right-wing bullshit on there that give me a major case of cringe.

be the change you want to see in the world

Odysee takes a lot of curation to even be usable. You can block whole channels easily and they won't show up for you anywhere, but once you've blocked all the RWB you're left with mostly tech, gaming, and reactions. And this is despite Odysee/LBRY having been around for years.

That's not unlike youtube really

So don't watch it? I would rather the platform all all legal content then trying to be the morality police.

I would also prefer to use third party recommendation engines (like people posting on Lemmy) then one run by any particular platform.

Sure, but it's literally every other thumbnail and it pisses me off as I do not tolerate intolerance.

I watch at most 1 video a week. It's not hard.

Yeah, that’ll be hard. I’m trying to use Peertube but network effect is big on YT (not sure if that’s the right expression here, noone is using Peertube, everyone is on YT).

There was a time "noone" was on YouTube.
