YOUTUBE JUST BANNED SIMPLY BITCOIN
After 4 years of building up the SB channel, putting in 100s of hours of work and making sure to follow the community guidelines
@YouTube
@TeamYouTube
seems to continue to go after Bitcoin only content.
Discussion
Proud to have been watching live when it happened.
🥲 Migrate to #nostr other stuff 🤙 No rugging here 😎
YouTube and Maps are the two most problematic platforms to get away from.
Because of the content, not the tech, obviously.
Still we gonna start somewhere.
For the maps there's OpenStreetMaps and the Organic Maps app.
For YouTube I would start with something like NewPipe to stream from multiple sources, one being something like nostr / blossom / podcast3. 0 with video.
Then offering creators a simple migration from YouTube to a new open storage / video distribution channel where they can be zapped.
Organic Maps is amazing though, it's legitimately better than Google Maps' app in most ways for me. It's something as rare as a highly polished open source app.
Stop building on borrowed land. It will only get worse.
You've been warned
Fuck YouTube
Great way to put it. “Building on borrowed land.”
Use nostr:npub1eaz6dwsnvwkha5sn5puwwyxjgy26uusundrm684lg3vw4ma5c2jsqarcgz and nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5

what bout btckindergarten?
Quit sucking up to daddy Elon & Google’s centralized algos and start contributing and building on top of pro freedom platforms.
#Xitter cucks will get cucked.
lol
Dang I'm sorry to hear it. Must be such a sour feeling seeing your hard work get rugged like that at the push of a button.
That said, if only there was some sort of censorship resistant protocol and related ecosystem built around hard money that supports livestreams and podcasting.
If only such a thing existed...🤔
Fuck YouTube. We got you here on nostr 🤙
They are fiat platforms, of course they gonna rug you... Stop whining and decentralise. It's not as if you didn't know it was coming.
Get with someone who knows how to set up a simply bitcoin relay. Self host all your content there. Use YouTube for short form and only as a way to tell people that this is where they can find the real simply. Teasers and snippets on TheirTube only..
Also is anybody working on a video-focused client? #asknostr
Note: nostr:nprofile1qqsxpfwtq34xpnqy9djsg7jjayq3rrst95r4xflje0nqlwjjwhfhrycpzpmhxue69uhkumewwd68ytnrwghszxthwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skctcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhse6ztph doesn't appear to ever reply. Their posts here are entirely just cross-posts from X. This account foes not engage with the Nostr community.
Seems to me that the occasion of being banned from a centralized platform would be a good opportunity to go Nostr-first, but will they?
The “@teamyoutube” screams copy and paste from X. Just kind of frustrating to see
Oh, it's 100% some kind of automatic cross-posting bot.
Probably not. They are chasing fiat, fake engagement and clout - nothing you'll find here.
They won't. They're clout chasers. Not enough clout here.

Maybe you shouldn't be illegally transmitting then Mr bitcoin man. Haha
Jk.
Its obv terrible blow and loss of sunk resources. At least you can do it better / faster this time.

Did you get banned?
That sux
I had mine banned a few years ago and couldn't get it back. Automated response from bots.
Thats why we nostr
Stop fighting them and move to parallel platforms. Pain now = payoff in the end.
What they’re doing is not sustainable long term.
I have completely given up goog/msft/aapl and I dont miss them. There are perfect alternatives. The only leverage they have on you is money… and BTC solves that problem too. 🍻
Why? What did you say?
no one watched your shitty channel anyway lol
Wai so hostile?
Oh idk maybe because they pump out the most bizarre garbage content on their channel and expect everyone to simp for them and elsalvador and were not allowed to question anything, theyre fake bitcoiners plain and simple, derranged supposed "maximalists" who cant code and only care about fiat value while accusing everyone else of doing that exact thing
Ok, that sounds like some solid points of improvement. I haven’t watched the channel much so in no position to refute them.
Still I don’t wish this kind of action against any genuine and honest actor regardless on what stage they are on their bitcoin journey. And yes, I also can’t judge if they’re genuinely trying. But I’ll still give it the benefit of the doubt. Incentives can be strong, and most people are still working and measuring from the old system.
Whether people simp for them is up to them. No shame in trying to muster a counter weight to youtube. Even though the solution will never be as sustainable as a technical one, like Nostr.
Thank you for sharing regardless, much appreciated.
my overall point is that they are bad at their job, all while pretending theyre so great, holier than thou, bigger bitcoiners than us, etc...
I support bitcoin and dont want to see a channel pushing an echo chamber narrative that seems entirely paid off by a handful of corporations already in control of the bitcoin ecosystem
Also my nostr account is literally censored from every single desktop UI from posting pictures, its not censorship resistant if I have to roll my own fucking UI just to post a picture. they are LYING to you
Upload your existing videos to IPFS, and link them on Dtube. Start streaming on Zap.Stream.
No more corporates.
Fuck YouTube… at some point we all have to get off YouTube anyways.
That’s really disappointing. Tell us where you wind up.
So annoying. Time to ban youtube.
I watched the last video with rustin. That shit had me rolling but all the while I was thinking to myself 'these guys are gonna get in trouble with big algo'
When NostrTube?
flare.pub
They store the data on amazon servers. Isnt that a point of failure & not censorship resistant?
If it is then why not store it on decentralised storage systems like filecoin or arweave?
Why don't you stream on zap.stream
Well awesome to have you here!! Forced early adoption and focus on a better system. Sorry for all your hard work and losing so much reach. Might be less people here, but the ones that are seem amazing!
We need to start a mass migration away from these centralized services. It wouldn’t take long to build up a video service that would overtake youtube.
What’s the video that did it? I want to zap it
Have you tried 3Speak yet? Web3 video platform running on Hive, one of the most decentralized chains. They have a quite nice App too.
😱😱😱
Got me to sign up for Rumble today when I saw this happened.
I wish we could all make enough noise to start something on #nostr to make people come here by content
Goddamn tyrants
Thats ruff. I hope you have all the content backed up
we will need censorship robust social networks. or else is dark age again
We need to have a decentralized video streaming service urgently!!
nostr:note1j3x6ct6xvlnkwd4pes48200vyq2ftajzxzye9yp2xj7nys5za0jqzpeh55
I cant zap you bro
What was the feedback they provided as to why they closed your channel?
Another reason for decentralized projects like #nostr
long live decentralization ✌️🌏♥️
nostr:note1j3x6ct6xvlnkwd4pes48200vyq2ftajzxzye9yp2xj7nys5za0jqzpeh55
I have no words. But I have the same feeling that I had when my bank refused my request to transfer shitty fiat to a legitimate and legal exchange.
It's absurd considering how many shitcoin shills are still allowed to peddle their nonsense.
ikr
Been listening to you guys from the start , one of , if not my favourite shows, keep going , keep building and keep spreading the gospel ✌️🤘
Boycot youtube
try that in a small town of decentralized relays
Hopefully you get it back.
80% of what I used to watch on YouTube has been banned.
Good luck. Hopefully we can all build outside the centralized systems.
Attacking self custody on every front.
Crazy
if you send me your videos i can add them to the llm
Screw Google!
My condolences on the death and rebirth of your dream... and lots and lots of hard work...
so pissed at how ridiculous the censorship is getting, will nice to rumble to follow you guys, not seeing rustins videos though, any links?
Time to go multi platform like Rumble. Tell your fans and they will follow.
Heey, I see you are back!!!
Listened to that episode and went ahead and joined Nostr within 30 minutes 😁
