       YouTube will now show ads on all videos even if creators don’t want them: https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2020/11/18/youtube-will-now-show-ads-on-all-videos-even-if-creators-dont-want-them#PeerTube is a free and open-source, decentralized, federated video platform powered by #ActivityPub and WebTorrent, that uses peer-to-peer technology to reduce load on individual servers when viewing videos. Started in 2015 by a programmer known as Chocobozzz, development of PeerTube is now supported by the French non-profit Framasoft. The aim is to provide an alternative to centralized platforms such as #YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion.

       The fediverse is smaller but everyone is much more engaged. I'm really excited about the future of PeerTube.

       @chriswere This alongside the "Login to get the best experience!" is really annoying.Youtube really is terrible and only getting worse.

       YouTube is becoming a worse and worse experience every day. I'm incredibly excited about the potential of creators finally getting fed-up with Google and moving to PeerTube. Creators like @chriswere@share.tube are paving the way, and this is the first time the online video space has felt exciting again in at least a decade! Keep up the good work!

       Good video from @chriswere I posted about this yesterday, and I find it reprehensible. Google has a market cap of over $1.8 trillion, and yet they're building their service off the backs of small content creators that they don't even compensate?This is why I support #PeerTube because the world deserves better than this.

       @tilvidsI have old #FreeCAD mini-tutorials on YouTube, on the obsolete side (and audio-less, which many complain about). Not worth migrating to a Peer tube instance I think. I might as well delete them.@chriswere

       @chriswere   Good thoughts, mostly.  I’ve been thinking on these things for some time.  At small scale it is feasible to keep all free but as things scale, in regards to bandwidth, the reality is things get a bit expensive.  With no ads, how do we pay for things?  What do you think are the best options to pay for expenses without any annoying ads?  BTW - I just launched a peertube instance:  gorf.tube

       @normandc @chriswere I hate deleting anything, even things that are outdated. You never know when someone might be interested! There are so many apps from the 90s/00s that I just stopped using, and then 10 years later I'm like, "I wish someone would have made a video about that so that I can go back and reminisce!"Your "obsolete" video might have more value than you know! :)

       @derek My point is you could subsidize the nearly unmonetizable short videos with premium stuff.I know Hulu used to have a free tier - but it had ads.I don't fully oppose ads if they are proportionate. A 30 second ad to watch a 30 second cat video is an obscenity, and just makes everyone upgrade their adblocker.

       @judgedread  Right.  Exactly.  Just a 3 second image is more than most display ads get on a webpage.  Ads in twitter/facebook feeds count as view with 3 millisecond view time.  you could probably do like $10 CPM on such a spot.

       @derek @chriswere Are ads annoying? Ads simply are not done right. I have paid for magazines over the years, not now, but in the past, specifically for the ads. Why? The ads were interest-oriented.Seeing ads for big pharma when you lack a problem, well, that is a problem. Seeing ads for diapers when you don't have a baby is thoughtless. The problem with most advertising even on the Internet is that ads are not interest-driven.Have your users fill out a questionnaire and serve them ads about their interests.

       @chriswere Maybe it would be better to monetize your youtube videos? Let me explain:As Youtube displays ads anyway, you might as well take a share of the profits of the company. (Well I don't know much about monetization. I don't know if, when you monetize, there are necessarily more ads or if the number of ads can remain as low as without monetization).This would allow you to fund FOSS projects/any other type of project/fund you/take part in the costs of hosting share.tube...I don't know ^^

       @Arco@mamot.fr the problem here is small creators who are not eligible for partner program didnt have ads on their videos.now they do and they dont even earn until they are eligible.what this means is that unless a youtuber has 4000 subscribers and other limits, YouTube is earning off of their work and they are getting nothing.Chris deciding to not earn is a different thing but similar.

       @Arco@mamot.fr @jonathan_2@devtube.dev-wiki.de I have to admit, I'd be even fine with "YouTube is earning off of their work and they are getting nothing.", as that's basically how most of web 2.0 has been funded. What bothers me mostly is that the advertisement on youtube is a lot more intrusive than banners, and you cannot turn it off unless you have a super successful channel. Like, you can't even pay youtube to make up the add revenue they'd lose if you'd be able to turn off ads. And that kind of thing is kinda a problem for anyone who isn't comfortable with the adtech industry but still wants to share videos.Come to think of it, I am not sure if I'd be comfortable with sharing the super-short timelapses I've been posting if I knew an advert of the same length would come before it.

       I agree completely with your feelings about the Fediverse being more like how we imagined the internet should be. If nothing else it makes me feel like the internet is niche and geeky again :p And the smaller community is nice.

       @art@peertube.linuxrocks.online I really think the future of online communities is lots more smaller groups. We've seen what happens on the massive platforms, and it's just a bunch of gaming by spammers, bots, and trolls. Facebook/Google don't care, because they're making money anyway, but it's an awful user experience. When your community only has a few thousand people, nefarious agents get found out and kicked out rather quickly.

       @PirateRobotFromMars@fosstodon.org @ffeth@mastodon.gougere.fr Sepia Search is the best answer so far, probably. I do wish there was a better way to distinguish the different instances, because I think they fall into three categories:1. Instances that want to replicate YouTube (i.e. be a dumping-ground for content). These ones are getting overwhelmed with questionable content right now.2. Instances that limit content. Blender, PrivacyTools, TILvids, etc. These ones are less open to everyone, but are solving the questionable content problem.3. Instances that are personal. These ones are mostly meant for friends/family, and don't necessarily have (or even want) a broader audience.Right now, those are all getting lumped together, and I think it's doing a disservice to the community, because it's a confusing experience to new users.

       Now I'm inspired into making more peertube videos. DangAlso inreresting to watch your journey Chris. Seems like you've had like a long Youtube arc storyline moving towards peertube.But a even greater arc or journey exploring your feelings about content creation. Going from earning money from youtube, to demonetizing to moving to a platform you enjoy more.And I got to agree. I actually read the comments on peertube. On youtube I ignore all comment sections

       Peertube needs actual content discovery. Sepia Search is not enough. I saw somewhere we could have a StumbleUpon style implementation. I don't have answers but ANYTHING would be better than what we have now. We also have poor search engine results. We could have better metadata. Five tags is simply not enough to feed to search engines.

       @peranchor@meow.social Blockchain is immutable and permanent. If you wanted to disappear, nope. That option needs to be there. Also LBRY is centralized. If they go away so does your data. Peertube doesn't have account migration (yet) but at least I can run my own instance how I see fit.

       @christalleras@share.tube The latest ToS update really turned me off of YT. Although I am monetized currently, I want to start converting my small following to Peertube. I am not hurting for the couple of bucks I get from YT a month.

       @PirateRobotFromMars@fosstodon.org @ffeth@mastodon.gougere.fr Sepia is great to find stuff but you gotta know what you are looking for. It is hard to just land on something you want to watch on the sidebar. My instance only shows me videos uploaded locally. But I do have Sepia Search enabled for my instance so we can find stuff on the fediverse.I want to say I saw this on reddit somewhere... but someone mentioned getting a StumbleUpon style implementation for Peertube. Currently what we have on Peertube is really bad for discovery.

       @chris I think you misunderstood what I wrote. When I said "Login to get the best experience!", I was hating on youtube nagging you to login with your google account - which I dont have.Peertube is great cause I can post from my pleroma account. What I said wasn't a critique of peertube. It's your choice if you want to federate. I think federation a positive since it allows others to engage and spread your videos but I can understand it requires more moderation.

       @anjan@pleroma.debian.social Oh, okay, I think I read your comment too fast. I am not interested in federation because I don't want my instance littered with random stuff. I setup Sepia as the search in order to reach the fediverse. I have followed and am following a redundancy instance I setup that auto accepts follows so my videos can be seen by the fediverse though.

       @chris@famichiki.tube @chriswere@share.tube sepia search is GPL code. you could spin your own version, own implementation of it. there was this guy. before sepia who made https://peertube-search.com/ i don't know.... if someone has some ideas, maybe we can get people to set up a github and throw ideas around. something might stick. we would have to use the sepia index because it is already in place

       There is an alternative to not needing to watch ads but still supporting the content creator and YouTube with your money, this is what I have been doing for the last couple of years and you get thrown in YouTube Music into the mix so you don't need to pay a Spotify subscription anymore and it is YouTube Premium. It's about the price of Spotify per months but you get much more with ad-free YouTube.

       @jeena@tube.jeena.net The dictators at Framasoft will not budge on the 5 tag limit. The admin of the server needs to be able to decide how many tags/characters that can go on the video. 5 is not enough. But I don't think it matters anyway right now as the results as displayed on search engines are garbage. Something about server-side rendering would fix the search engine problem.

       @chris@famichiki.tube calling them dictators seems weird to me when they give you the code so you can change it yourself. Here is the line and you can change it on your server https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/f309a156a6201797b4eca19d090f37f2f0da403b/client/src/app/shared/shared-forms/select/select-tags.component.html#L6 (even though it would be nice to have a UI for that, and it's not that complicated to do, I just don't have the time to implement it right now.

       @jeena@tube.jeena.net There was an issue on github where someone brought up increasing tags and the attitude of the reply of one of the devs was "absolutely not" or something like that. I don't know how to code but if I did a PR for it they would probably reject it

       @chris@famichiki.tube there is always the option of a fork or just applying a small patch which changes the number in that file after an upgrade, that's the beauty of free software, in the end it is the user of the software who decides how it should be used, not the developer. That btw. is the biggest difference in the philosophy of Open Source and Free Software.

       @chris@famichiki.tube I think I found the github issue you were talking about https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/704 and I can't see anything like "absolutely not" there, instead a civil discussion and a "Closing for now until we have more practical clues :)" so I would encourage you to add to the discussion so we can collect those more practical clues.

       @chris@famichiki.tube @chriswere@share.tube @jonathan_2@devtube.dev-wiki.de That's why your instance should either follow a public index or follow as many other instances as possible. The search index only make video from other instances part of a search result.

Feel free to reccomend anything, either sending a message to this account or via opening an issue. (Yes, I'm considering moving off from github one day)https://github.com/Niquarl/Peertube-QualityThere is also @peertubers_wiki that I started (slow but got others interested in the project), it has a page for Chris btw: https://peertubers.frama.wiki/peertubers:chriswere

       Can I just say that I really like that you noticed that the monitor is in your glasses ? Love that. Still hate that it does it but love that you said you were sorry about that! (Ok, I'm going to, for the first time, give a little appreciation on Liberapay. Btw, did you not use to have a patreon ? I'm sorry if you did a video on that before but I must have missed it.)

        I think the $1 a month is a shame indeed, though you can make it so it only activates for new videos instead of monthly (big channels like CGPGrey do it that way), you could choose witch videos are worth asking money from supporters (there is a maximum/month fyi). I think Liberapay really shot itself in the foot because of the essential end of weekly revenue (I understand why), it was muc h better to have a Liberapay wallet.Also as you mention 'a few penies a week/month' I would like to ask you what you think of the 'objectif 1% from Ploum (popular francophone blogger, cf. https://ploum.net/objectif-1/) where everybody gives 1% of their income to 'culture' (broad definition), this would be from UK minimum wage of £1,424.54 about £15 per month. Therfore, your content should be worth a dollar a month (if I made minimum wage, student so I don't tbh) as I don't watch more than 15 video creators (on Liberapay, Patreon etc). Would be interest about your opinion about this 1% culture 'tax' (keep in mind BBC fee + all other commercial culture prices from TV, films, music etc.) as an actual 'creator'.

       @chriswere@share.tube Oh wow they've got quite the little reputation. Apparently they deal mostly in in-game music and religious songs (melodies). Pretty incredible they are going after videos of choirs and everything. Honnnestly there could be a possible media storm on the religious stuff.

       @tilvids @chriswere To answer @icedquinn  : live streaming is still under development (and tests). We plan to release a v3 "Release Candidate" ( ~ almost done but still green) with this feature before the holidays, and the stable v3 would follow in January.

Why not tell YouTube to throw as many ads against your videos as possible, with the exception of pre-roll, then let people know at the start that they can view your videos ad-free on your PeerTube channel (link in the description) and just donate all the ad revenue to your PeerTube host?

       You make a good point.I got tired of YouTube because of:1. Too many ads (and that's even before that ads-on-every-video thing)2. Shitty privacy3. Not what I like (centralized).. then I switched to Invidious (https://invidio.us)and I've like tried lbry before.. but it is JUST SHITTY - not only what you say, but also because there are a lot of videos like "up" where there are 0 peers so you cannot even watch it..I am just now realizing how good PeerTube is.. and how big it is.. soooo many instances.I liked this video so much, as it was relaxing.. soothing... and this is veeery rare!I enjoy your opinion and this video. <3#FuckYouTube
