I’m surprised I haven’t seen anyone mention Odysee yet

I signed up to Odysee the other day to upload a video. It was too hard and I gave up.

You need to be confirmed to upload. Their options were:

Do a test transaction ($1 to CC)

Pay some money (CC transaction)

Join their discord and say “Hi” to the verif bot.

Option 1: Broken, not available at this time. Option 2: Also broken. Option 3: The bot said “message me with details of your IRL public social media accounts”. I don’t have those.

Nope nope nope. Made an account on Vimeo and uploaded there instead. Everything worked.

Maybe I’m just not the target audience? Bigger barriers to entry might only let the more profitable people pass? Not sure.

Holy shit that’s actually removed. Good luck to them it’s probably the first and last time I’ll hear of them.
