    Any influencer that relies on YouTube ad money won't make the full jump.

    Other than that, they'll very quickly find out that keeping a video focused service running and serving 10k views daily (300k/mon) is very expensive both in storage and bandwidth.

    actually for big youtubers, ad revenue from google isn’t all that huge afaik. i’m going only on the LMG breakdown they did, but they only get 26% of their revenue from adsense… that’s no tiny share of course, but i wouldn’t call it completely catastrophic to loose

      In Japan they have an IR beacon system to track traffic congestion which works anonymously and lets offline car navigation systems have good-quality traffic info.

            Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.

            I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.

            There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.

            Your own domain for email hosting is a massive pain in the ass. Have you not run into a million problems with other hosting providers refusing you for possibly spam?

              You can look any youtuber up on socialblade and see their earnings range. It's not small which goes to show his diversified stuff must make a shitload.

                      You should see reddit or any other mainstream social media for that matter, I assure you it gets much worse. In fact people on lemmy are mosltly normal.

                        Didn’t try to host a domain myself yet, but having it set up with Proton has given me zero problems thus far.

                          This is the first time I have seen someone reference the decade as the 10’s and I feel weird about it.

                          The 20’s last century seemed cooler.

                          It felt weirder to me a few years ago. But over time a just vaguely identifiable character for 2010 to 2019 has emerged when I think of that decade.

                            For Pewdiepie this makes a lot of sense, he was literally the top youtuber. But uploading also somewhere else (no exclusivity required) needs to become mainstream yesterday. We have technical colleges far from the US posting educational video content for a website embed on youtube only, it's madness 😅

                            Where would be a general purpose place to use as the second platform? Something that's easy to use (and ofc not even more immoral than youtube, so not rumble or things like that).

                              Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.

                              How are you going to do that advertising using one of their products? He has 100M followers and he's a multi millionare, he should close his youtube account and move in another platform

                                I think it's ironic that the alternatives to Android (graphene, calyx) only fully work on Google phones.

                                  Can we stop with the narrative that corporations and celebrities are doing good? This guy is 110 Million people away from doing something for privacy and linux, once he makes 110 million and one person switch to linux or using a youtube alternative he will have done some work in the positive.

                                    No, not I don’t self host my email which is where a lot of the trouble comes from

                                    I don’t remember having any issues with it ever. That was a concern so I did slowly transition to the custom domain

                                          Nebula is an option for some content creators but it is subscription based.

                                          Wish more creators would move to Nebula. I joined on Grady from Practical Engineering's recommendation. His stuff is great.

                                          I haven't quite figured out how to use PeerTube yet.
