I thought odysee is a better alternative for youtube and offers much more privacy. But it’s not. So disappointed.

Feeling hard to quit youtube because of other platforms doesn’t have much better or quality contents expecially no instance of peertube is truly usable. 🤥

    Grayjay is pretty good, but isn’t exactly an alternative to YouTube since it just pulls from YouTube and strips the junk.

    Grayjay is to videos what Lemmy is to news, an aggregator, not a generator.

      Except if people used grayjay en masse, they have the power to advertise a brand new platform

        I suppose you’re right but I’m not sure how effective that would be since the they’d have to convince the creators off however many platforms their pulling from and direct them either to Grayjay (which as far as I know doesn’t have hosting infrastructure) or to some other service like Peertube I suppose.

        I think that transition would be difficult.

      Thanks for clarifying, I misunderstood the question.

      The content on YouTube is golden and likely cannot be replaced, created elsewhere.

      Hence, stripping the junk is what makes it palatable for me.

      Cheers
