when you post your YouTube video to nostr it can’t be suppressed
YouTube becomes just your video storage with a share link
Discussion
Unless YT takes it down?
Or are you copy pasting?
I keep asking creators there to post here as well.
Don’t you need to host that video somewhere?
😂 Unless YouTube decides to nuke the link.
Or it gets DMCA’d
Or it gets region locked
Or it gets client locked
Or…
I never share direct YouTube links for this reason (unless giving a source).
I yt-dlp the video and stick it in a bucket then share that link.
Ofc that's not super decentralised either. But I could put it on Arweave, IPFS, etc for decentralised storage.
and give up the ad revenue?
Haha, you'd think this, but they remove content all of the time. Most of the time it's ot even on purpose. It's their over aggressive content moderation tools that need to be seriously looked at and overhauled.
Yep their moderation algo eats comments too.
No joke on this: whenever I post a comment with "Davos" in it, it gets shadowbanned. It shows for my account, but not if I open the thread in a private browsing session.
Ask nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m for the answer to this one
For most people (anyone except super big "YouTubers") ad revenue on YouTube is pretty much nothing anyway.
If you've produced something for the Nostr audience you'll probably make more in sats from zaps.
Exactly
But also post to other video hosts like rumble, bitchute, odyssey
Rather use other methods of sharing than YouTube, it can be a real bitch with some topics.
Try noagendatube for uploading and sharing; it’s better that way IMO
is YouTube subsidized by Alphabet ? how can they afford to host 8K video when most porno sites can't even afford 4K ?
i would like to see some kind of bit-torrent based solution for video. i just don't like the odds of sites like bitchute surviving long term. why rely on 3rd parties ?
