Replacing Youtube is really hard! - Lemmy

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. 🤥

Video platform is the next thing to be federated.

I don’t like YouTube moderation and the host should be federated, the way it is now YouTube owns the public data.

Very unlikely to happen, it’s way too expensive or demanding to run at a significant scale and it would probably end up with a single monolithic instance

Just use torrents. You can set up torrents to subscribe and automatically download new episodes of shows and watch them on a client on your TV or phone. You can stream a torrent as well. I’m sure there’s a way to make a YouTube like experience.

Yeah I guess torrents would be the closest thing to federated video, but seeing the download speed of most torrents that I find even ones with many seeds, it is often balls slow

It wouldn’t be out of the question for the creator to pay for something like a seedbox that has a gigabit unlimited connection. They only cost around $10/mo.
