The problem with all these self hosted options is you lose all the incredible tools from YouTube and other centralized providers. Playback speed, auto captioning, end cards, analytics on watch time, discovery algorithms, etc
Nobody is building a proper YouTube for a decentralized world.
There have been slight attempts like Flare, but I have asked multiple times for help setting it up and have gotten nowhere with finding any documentation or peer help
Until then I try my best with self-hosting but it only makes sense for short form content or livestreaming

*just keep note this is a highly compressed version, unfortunately there is no native video hosting on NOSTR in a decentralized way, so it is better for me to just self-host through a paid service like nostr.build
**this also means I get no ad Rev or impressions on my YouTube which is what allows my videos to reach a wider audience, so zaps are appreciated if you enjoyed the film!

Hola NOSTR 🤙 ever wonder why resource RICH countries end up with record high poverty?
It's called the "Resource Curse" 👇
How rare is it to own 1 whole Bitcoin?
Well, if you look roughly at the distribution of how many wallets have more than half a Bitcoin, only 4-and-a-half million people could realistically claim to be “whole-coiners” as of today.
That’s less than the population of Alabama.
But because Bitcoin is divisible up to 9 decimal places, there is technically enough Bitcoin for every person on the planet to have… some.
If you did divide up all 21 million bitcoin that will ever exist evenly to every person on earth,
Each would get .0026 BTC, or roughly $120 when this video was published.
Now whatever your thoughts on Bitcoin are,
If you think there is more than even a 0.01% chance that Bitcoin could become the world’s reserve currency - not owning at least that much means you would hold less than the average human on the planet.
And today, you can buy that for 20 starbucks coffees, 7 movie tickets, or the average cost of a date night.
They say you can’t buy love, but you definitely can afford to stack some sats.
gm NOSTR ☀️ for some reason understanding Multisig reminds me of high school trauma, so I made this video:
The US dollar is broken, and it is taking the world down with it.
#Bitcoin is the exit hatch 👇
Day 3 of Only Surviving on #bitcoin
I don’t have enough sats left for the next days - so I tried to earn $250 in bitcoin in 24 hours…
Only 4 more days and I want to get on a boat before #bitcoinatlantis kicks off… 🧡

gonna bombard you with 69 sat zaps
Whitney Webb has a great take on this - it is all about the WEF's attempt at creating a sense of neutrality for public private partnerships
gm NOSTR 🤙 you've heard of Javier Milei - so what has he actually done in his first 60 days as President of Argentina?
No SINGLE source of creator revenue will sustain you, not sponsorships, not ad rev, not v4v, not Patreon, not merch.
It is about a diversified portfolio of rev streams.
You made 400k sats in 3 months!
On YouTube, you would need to pull about 100,000-200,000 monetized views (views that had to force your audience through a 5-15sec pre-roll ad) to make the same amount.
My bet is you only made a fraction of those views on NOSTR, and all those earnings were voluntary!
Stick around 🤙
