There is peertube as well, but it lacks monetization. And Patreon is not the answer because not many will bother paying each creator separately (it at all). To me subscription sounds like an ideal solution, but of course, not YouTube.
I applaud your for posting on peertube. And yes, you are right, peertube is at early stages, it lacks discoverability, apps (that’d run on chromecast and TVs in general) and monetization as mentioned. But it’s also a chicken and egg situation. I really do hope it takes off for good.
Nebula exists but I subscribed to it like during COVID with Curiosity Stream bundle, however, I find their UI confusing and content discovery was very hard.
Nebula tightly currates which creators they accept onto their platform. Nobody who doesn’t already have a long track record of creating and publishing quality videos is going to be accepted.
Which is good for viewers - less slop to wade through. But it’s hard for creators to break into.
Back when they had the Curiosity Stream bundle content discovery basically didn’t matter, because they barely had any content. You could check the site like two or three times a week and there’d be like 4 or 5 new videos each time.
It’s expanded a huge amount since then. And they’ve added a larger degree of content discovery stuff. Personally I mostly just go straight to the “Latest Videos” section (which, unlike the confusingly-similarly-named “New Releases” section, only shows the latest videos from channels you follow), but there are a bunch of other ways you can let it suggest content to you.
Especially as someone paid in a currency weaker than the dollar with a lower salary than I’d have in the US, I can’t even afford to do this if I wanted to. I do still subscribe to Nebula which has many creators I like
I’ve seen this, I saw a hard ensure racer with an onlyfans decal on her bike. Her page didn’t have anything sexual on it, I was surprised and relieved.
Why I just push Patreon or another platform fuck trying to earn money through YouTube that worthless.

It also lacks an audience at any sort of scale.
I publish on both YouTube and peertube. 3-4000 views on youtube, 10-30 on peertube.
Also published on odysee for a while, with similarly 2 digit views.

Right. I wish more people who post on YouTube would post also on alternatives such as Nebula. I mean it’s only profit for them, isn’t it?

They should allow quick unpolished genuine videos. I watch them all the time.
What, they are picky? 👀 They could curate the content, not denying it.

A lot of YT creators are moving to OnlyFans.

Yeah, this unfortunately
Honestly that’s why I support YouTube creators on patreon and subscribe star
