YouTube is cracking down on consumers’ favorite loophole - Adblockers::undefined
No one can create an alternative platform. Youtube costs far far, far too much to run. This is why everyone failed. Google subsidised it for what, 15 years? Before it got any level of profitability and even then, nof really. Google derives other value from it, like feeding data into their ad profiles, but no one else needs that.
It’s also clear that workarounds will stop soon as Google has installed Web drm directly into chrome
Peertube already exists and it’s better because a creator can host their own content without having to host everybody else’s content and therefore keep the price manageable. If a creator absolutely blows up mega huge then people watching the same video at the same time will be sharing the video with peers and load balance
