A friend of mine nostr:nprofile1qqsxp8ex7v3p97qtwv2w27xpsfpmph665mc087975u44873yvwj8fkcprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ezummjv9hxwetsd9kxctnyv4mz7qgdwaehxw309a38yc3wd9hj7ywmdp4 just had his 4 YouTube channels shut down out of the blue. His entire business and 6 years of building rug pulled with no explanation other than “dangerous information.”
Not your platform, not your business… content creators need to be resilient and own their businesses.
I am in the process of migrating away from YouTube currently
Next week will be my last week of daily livestreams on YouTube
The 400th show will be the last
I will be exclusively streaming on Nostr and Rumble
This will hurt (big time) in the short term but honestly fuck YouTube. This is a long-term play that hopefully plays out
YouTube can fuck themselves
Not all heroes write code
Respect… not an easy decision as YouTube is where the vast majority of content consumers are. But I do believe decentralization will win in the long run. People want authentic content and if it’s not possible on centralized platforms the consumers will migrate over time.
awesome man much respect
Going all in!
When the Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen lead the first first crossing of the Greenlandic ice cap in 1888 (from east to west), the expeditions motto was "West coast or death". They had no way of returning. A true "burn all boats" story.
You are setting of for the digital west coast, risking great pain. You sir, have earned my respect!

Rumble is just as bad, if not worse, than YouTube is. That's part of the false dichotomy.
Have you considered Odysee, by chance?
