youtube pays you even if the content isn’t worth getting paid for

if alphabet's shareholders heard this, they would take them to court. it can't be true. and if they're willing to pay, someone else will be, too.

so? find someone to pay you.

if you can't find someone willing to pay you to make content, maybe your content isn't worth getting paid for.

oh shit. super bad guy. glad i never installed a fucking client. fuck everything about this.

i don't trust it because it is very big on the design meaning to be "censorship resistant" and there are certain kinds of posts that people make that probably should be censored, and while i like that some tools exist to make pseudononymous, censorship-resistant communications possible (tor and i2p are good. freenet is fine imho), this one looks like a grift that has a neon sign saying "censorship resistant".... and i am sure that associating with those people will lead to encountering some of that material that probably should be censored.

you can make money off-platform from your content. you don't need to be paid by youtube.

peertube exists. so does owncast

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

peertube uses webtorrents. it's viable. it works. owncast is fully self-hosted. it works. all the people downvoting are repeating a talking point, and have never implemented these projects.

peertube uses webtorrents to share bandwidth among users: if you're watching a video, you share the data to other users at the same time.

There’s a good reason Lemmy doesn’t have videos.

peertube exists. it's activitypub. lemmy is the reddit-like interface to activitypub. but the fediverse definitely has video. it even has live streaming through OwnCast (though i think peertube has livestreaming scheduled to be implemented as well)

edit: hey i just found a movie station!
