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. 🤥

      It’s a chinese platform. Comparatively google is much better than baidu even in terms of privacy. 😐

        Besides, it was a joke. Baidu and Billibilli have completely different content. It’s like replacing candy with a tomato in a child’s meal. Of course you’re going to get mad at me.

        Odysee in this analogy would be like replacing candy with shitty off brand candy.

        Odysee is not a foreign thriving streaming service it’s a venture capital funded mess that’s never going to do well compared to YT, same with Bitchute and others.

        You’re going to want https://invidious.privacy.dev/ for an easy way to get your fix. Or Youtube DL.

        I just don’t really use youtube for much of anything unless I randomly look stuff up. Odysee is certainly not going to provide me with tutorials or music albums!

        Peertube is also not a replacement and more a way for people to self-host their channels free of censorship and then federate (like here on Lemmy) but it’s going to be much bigger than Odysee or Bitchute because it’s an open source software platform, not a shitty youtube knockoff.
