I get fucking over Hollywood.

I will never get refusing to pay for YouTube Premium and blocking ads on YT.

You’re literally looking at small creators and saying fuck you. They live off that revenue. And Premium views pay way more than ad supported ones.

It’s a lot less Robin Hood when you’re stealing from the struggling artist.

I’d wish they’d stop forcing ad content and let me pay 😂

YT Premium isn’t available where you are?

No it is available but every other service has an ad tier now 😂 I don’t want to see your ads even if I have to save money!

How about a V4V, LN enabled alternative?!?

Obviously 👍. When we have a big enough market to make it livable for them. Until then, we keep zappin and onboarding.

I know I’m not in the same real, but I’m paying Sats for views on my Roku, Apple TV apps for indie films and musicians on nostr:npub10hgypqzf2h5nne3unhttvzhd7mpfkm8860wvj8eh7pkrsdhksy7sr3q9w5

Gonna check this out. Thx for the tip.

It’s been a constant side project of mine for like 20 years. Produced films, lots of film music placement, etc. Always to help the little guys.

YouTube premium is the best subscription deal I know of. Infinity content for less than $20 a month, no ads, can watch on phone and TV, lock screen playback.

+YT Music included, higher bitrate videos, and more paid to the creators you watch per minute.

I’d rather not give google the cut too, but if I’m going to watch YouTube until everyone is on V4V, I’m gonna do it right.

Yes this is the way

1000%

The only downside is the prying eyes of Google, why lots of cypherpunks maneuver around cuz of the tracking right. But I agree about supporting the creators .

They can 👀 but never 👉

Youre smoking crack in your off time if you think youtube “supports starving artists” . They screw over more people on the daily than some governments 😂

I disagree. Hollywood is chumpchange compared to the harm Google creates.

Censorship and social engineering worldwide.

I do all I can to degoogle my life and there's no way I'm going to give them my money or even data in exchange for content.

YouTube complied with the EU's request to deplatform Russell Brand when Rumble gave them the finger. And, they complied with all the COVID censorship. People died because of that shit.

Use Rumble and ask creators to post their content their, as well. Support your favorite creators directly through any one of their crowdfunding services or buy their merch and use affiliate links.

maybe creators joining like fountain or the Creator in a p2p fashion is the way. there are many YouTubers I love but no easy way to directly zap them.

We Nedd to unleash the power of nostr upon #odysee to get them to dump LBC and adopt bitcoin zaps 😁

BitTorrent is your freind.
