"This centralized website sucks, let's fix it with the same thing!" Last time I used Odysee it was full of tinfoil hat flat earthers. Rumble is youtube for people that got banned from youtube, and Odysee is youtube with the block chain pointlessly added to it. If either site ever hits youtube's size they'll just become the same issue youtube is, enshitification is bound to happen. I know having options is better than a monopoly, and Peertube admittedly is rough, but I think as it's decentralized and self hosted it is the better option.
I thought that was BitChute? Or is Rumble BitChute but not banned from all posts on Reddit (Reddit did a global block of all BitChute links as part of the attempt to black hole the video of the Christchurch shooting and the video the shooter's manifesto suggests was what pushed him over the edge into action).
im subscribed to many privacy creators on odysee like mental outlaw
That's fair, I like mental outlaw, and there's nothing wrong with spreading your eggs out to other baskets. Having alternatives is better for sure, I just don't think we should flock over to these centralized options as the defacto alternative.
