So apparently youtube, or its comment system, is against the fediverse (feddit.de)

Over the time new youtube videos crop up talking about reddit, twitch and twitter issues. And in those comment sections I always like to spread the word of alternatives (like the fediverse). But whenever I do, those comments get quietly removed even though they seem to be posted in the first place.

Whenever I try to add further details, for example name dropping lemmy/bin pixelfeed peertube and mastodon, to previously posted comments those error out and gets deleted entirely.

Anyone else made that observation?

Open source alternatives are a threat. They cannot control information there. I bet all of them are blacklisted.

I'm not expert, but I think among all social media, YT would be the safest against the Fediverse, due to the massive amount of storage and bandwidth it requires.

Definitely the hardest to compete against, but if people come here, they will become aware of alternatives like Odysee and peer tube.

I'd love to use PeerTube, if channels I liked moved there.
