Do you know of any channels that only exists on peertube and not YouTube? Is there anyone that only putting videos on open source software?

    Most of the stuff posted to video.thepolarbear.co.uk is.

    The guy who hosts the PeerTube instance, Hamish, is hardline anti-big-tech, I believe. Whereas Chris Were and Drew / uoou are mostly just tired of YouTube commenters. Well, and there’s some other folks, who occasionally post there, where I don’t know, whether they post to YouTube, too.

    Lety has some videos that can’t go on any other platform I think. My dogs videos only exist for family and the 700 or so subscribers.

    Veronica explains and a couple others will have fedi specific videos if I recall. Take a look over at [email protected] . There is a couple of sister communities on the sidebar as well.

      Yeah, Lety does some NSFW-adjacent videos, which YouTube is too stuck up for.

          Hmm, well no, but don’t you still risk being banned or at least being hidden away by the Algorithm™, if such scandalous thing as a nipple is to be seen?

          I’m not sure now, if she actually said this is why she’s on PeerTube. Could also be that other social media platforms pissed her off and then she found a new home on the fediverse.

          …just remembered, she recently posted a video, where she’s unboxing a Mastodon plush and figured, maybe she says something there, and yeah: Apparently, she got banned from Instagram a whole bunch of times, so now she’s self-hosting Masto and then evidentally also PeerTube.
