Apparently, the YouTube legal team reached out to Invidious, for breaching their Terms of service. For now, nothing to be concerned about, as Invidious is its own thing and doesn’t use YouTube’s API, and thus shouldn’t be subject to the ToS, but still worth keeping an eye on:https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/3872

@thelinuxEXP I have always said, methods of "fixing" YouTube, (extensions, addons), and frontends (invidious, vanced) are a temporary workaround. Not a permanent solution. Twitch took back their horrible policy. Reddit and YouTube (with dislikes) aren't. This shows clearly that existence of a strong competitor allows no one bully! We should push towards Odysee, Peertube, etc. as much as we can

@abcxyz @thelinuxEXP “We should push towards Odysee, Peertube, etc. as much as we can”Conspiracy theories and “nerd stuff” are strong bubbles there.

@domodak @thelinuxEXP yeah. Thats what we mean by pushing. To put more diverse content. So that its not only "nerd" stuff. On Odysee, I see cat videos, news, reactions, explainers and other things too, not just nerd stuff anymore. This is what we have to mimic on peertube and other platforms too

@abcxyz @thelinuxEXP This is what we have to mimic on peertube and other platforms tooIndeed, I can not yet recommend Peertube to my friends, co-workers or family.They would nope out in ten minutes or less if they stumble over the tenth video in the style of “Covid is a scheme by reptiloids” or “What Richard Stallman thinks about X”.

@domodak @thelinuxEXP assuming what you said is true, you wrongly think this content isnt on YouTube or any other platform. The only difference between peertube and YouTube is that YT has had 15 years of knowing your family to figure out exactly the content they want. Just like mastodon, one has to spend some time to get the best experience a platform can offer. There are NO algorithms to please you here!

@abcxyz @thelinuxEXP “assuming what you said is true, you wrongly think this content isnt on YouTube or any other platform.”No, I don’t. But the first impression is still important.“The only difference between peertube and YouTube is that YT has had 15 years of knowing your family to figure out exactly the content they want. Just like mastodon, one has to spend some time to get the best experience a platform can offer. There are NO algorithms to please you here!”I know these things, but we shouldn’t expect that the Average Joe and Jane already know about that.:shrug_akko:

@domodak @thelinuxEXP when I said, to push, I meant to creators so they start uploading here. Not to the average viewers. The "try new experience" audience is enough that you can have decent viewership even if the joes dont yet commit fully.In all new platforms, naturally the content first comes. Then the audience

@abcxyz @thelinuxEXP “when I said, to push, I meant to creators so they start uploading here. Not to the average viewers. “Ah, okay.Last year I discussed with the owner of a Let’s Play-focused Peertube instance about a possible way: Explain the concept of Peertube to Youtubers with more “casual-ish” (in lack of a better term) content but a decent fanbase and persuade them to give permission to mirror their stuff in Peertube.
