Im not sure if this goes here like a major amount of my posts. Im looking for a alternative to youtube for beginners who just want to be apart of the community in a old school youtube perspective but not too old that it feels outdated. I sadly created a movie recap just to see how hard it was, it took me almost 2 hours just to slice and remove parts of the movie only to get a copyright warning by youtube. I mostly just blame my newbie editing skills, but is there a alternative to youtube that allows me to post videos youtube dosent want me to?

If you want to see my horrible cliche recap here it is. Be warned its not great and it has one of those text to speech voiceovers and such. I feel like i worked hard but at the same time i may have made slop. (please dont steal)

Big movie recap

PeerTube

Have you used peertube, how good is it?

SolarPunker@slrpnk.net on 28 Jul 04:51 next collapse

It is very good but needs a couple of big instances to attract people and make videos research more reliable in the fediverse.

They recently released an android app

That good, huh? šŸ˜›

Not so bad but not compatible with all instances. What I noticed in the past, is campaigns against peertube to avoid people from using it, something quite strange (actually disgusting) but a sign that it’s probably considered a ā€œdangerousā€ platform for the established ones

It’s no campaign. There is just a lot more (percentage wise) unfiltered trash on there.

I think they recently updated something to allow finding videos across different instances easier. But I don’t use it, so you will need to look that up.

Here is my instance video.benetou.fr but it’s not a community. It’s just me posting videos, sometimes live streaming then keeping and sharing the record.

Unsure on the creator side of things, but besides PeerTube, which uses ActivityPub like Lemmy/Mbin/PieFed, looking at Grayjay's sources list, there are some others, like Rumble, Odysee, BiliBili (Chinese), Nico Nico (Japanese), Dailymotion and Bitchute. Maybe a start to check?

niconico!

Odysee I found it cool when it first released. I checked some time later and it became an echo chamber.

I’ve been enjoying nebula. Def worth $6.50 a month imo but I understand it’s not for everyone.

saigot@lemmy.ca on 28 Jul 02:58 next collapse

I like and use nebula too, but it isn’t really a community, I don’t think it has any way at all for users to communicate, no comments no profiles etc etc

Mihies@programming.dev on 28 Jul 07:28 collapse

How much content is there and what type of content?

juipeltje@lemmy.world on 28 Jul 11:50 collapse

So far i haven’t come across something better than odysee. It has a community, but like most alternatives for larger platforms, the userbase is smaller, and often times i’ll also find some unhinged conspiratorial comments on there that are kinda off putting to me lol.
