      Throwing it out there - I am tired of left always acting as if something done decade ago was still fresh. Pewds changed, he flipped his whole video formula, and even back then evil things he did were at least questionable. Let it go folks. You are doing nothing else than making yourself look like bitter old people.

      Edit: I noticed it's not obvious what I am talking about. Other comments. People constantly talking about how Pewds is a nazi.

        I can kinda see it, though he's not my cup of tea. I like my videos a bit more essay-like and a bit more serious mode.

          Listen, we don't read the article and we don't watch the video before commenting. Maybe we're reading the headline first. Maybe. This is the way and it has always been the way.

          It's also always been the way that the people who actually clicked the link get to come into the comments and be frustrated at us for being legitimately wrong.

            We will read the headline, and possibly every single word in it. Like 75% of the time, at least.

            I like to read until I hit a noun, then look to see what community this it was posted to, then kinda riff it from there.

                  It's not easy, but you're not guaranteed to end up

                  either lose your shirt, sell your business, or become entrenched in a position whose inertia is difficult to break

                  It depends on the personalities involved and the business model they go with.

                  Nebula has done really well with consistent growth as a premium offering where people pay one subscription fee to get ad-free videos from exclusively high-quality creators across a quote broad range of niches, in addition to bonus extras and Nebula Originals.

                  Dropout seems to have a lot of success with a range of mostly unscripted comedy, centred around a core cast of trusted comedic actors with a larger range of guests.

                  Floatplane, on the other hand, seems much less successful, probably owing to its business model being basically Patreon's, but only for video. Instead of the wide range of content you get for surprisingly reasonable amounts of Nebula and Dropout, Floatplane ends up looking very expensive if you want to support more than one or two creators. Plus the creators on it haven't got the same degree of trust; it ends up reeking of the sort of techbro vibes that people are explicitly trying to get away from.

                  I'm sure these are accurate statements, but the fact remains that I've never heard of dropout or nebula. At all.

                  And the only reason I've heard of floatplane is via LTT and Jeff Geerling, and I don't actually use the platform itself.

                  That's what I mean about inertia, google has it now and can coast for years on people just being lazy and staying with YouTube. That alone will be a loooong hill to climb for any other platforms.

                  LTT seems to have enough clout and has worked out a survivable business model, but notice that they remain on YouTube to capture and keep new views.

                          If you don't let people make mistakes, change, and grow, you're living a petty, sad life.

                            If there's an article with words, can you pass it along? I'm not inclined to go on a Google website and listen to someone slowwwwly tell me why Google is bad.

                            Life's too short to listen to people who talk slow.

                                  maybe read the headline and the comments, but only like 30% before i react. I guess 75% for the headline maybe.

                                    Imagine if some big influencers like him switched to peertube, that would be quiet a thing indeed.

                                    How about LBRY? Do you think it's a sane alternative to YT? I also think peertube is the true freedom, though, I was surprised how quick videos load on odysee
