Odysee kinda sucks ngl. All my fav creators left because of the community there being so toxic.
I haven't really noticed that tbh, though I definitely believe it. A sizeable portion of people who populate 'alternative' platforms, are the people who get kicked off of, or censored on, mainstream platforms.
Unfortunately, that often means that those platforms struggle to attract regular users and content, since regular users are scared away by the existing users bad behavior..
The only way I can see those platforms really getting over that hump, is when the major platforms make stupid, overreaching, and greedy decisions. Pushing their regular users away, and onto those alternative platforms.
I don't know what it will take to get 'regular' users migrating off of youtube. But I can tell you right now that I will NOT accept watching ads, nor will I ever pay a cent to google.
The day that I am unable to block ads on youtube will be the last day that I use it.
