I know exactly what you mean about feeling grubby after watching YouTube these days. I can’t stomach it anymore myself. The endless audience capture, the same-same video formats, the same recycled buzzwords shouted in that obnoxious, over-amped delivery… It’s exhausting. And honestly, it’s stomach-turning to see grown adults lowering themselves to these levels just to chase clicks. Get a life I'm out.
Love seeing great music makers on PeerTube! With the Online Saftey Act in the UK and other bills worldwide, the internet is going to be increasing hostile to humans just trying to do their thing with a degree of autonomy. I always feel grubby watching stuff on YouTube.

DIY FTW.
Ps. When Nostr native self hosted video app? Or does it matter, if self hosting something like PeerTube?

Innit! Very rarely feels like a ‘you’ tube anymore. Nearly everything has a conformity of production, any niche homespun gets buried. And now, the moment a website like that gives me any friction I just fuck off and click something else instead.
