I saw no thread for it, which led me to think that I should start one, so... tada, I guess?

I honestly wonder what the breaking point is gonna be. What's gonna be the straw that instigates a mass exodus to some other video-hosting site? Will there ever be one?

[up]Unless Amazon or someone else buys a video platform, it's highly unlikely. The thing is aside from name recognition, Youtube is one of the fastest platform (even if it has to compress a lot to do so)

That being said, it's also possible (if very doubtful) that Dailymotion gets a massive revamp, or that Twitch becomes a video platform on top of the streaming platform.

I'm not crazy, just creatively different.

So I've heard that You Tube is undergoing a change in 2020, anyone know the details?

Something about new policy going into effect on December 12th or so, I got a popup forcing me to acknowledge it before moving on.

Well, a lot of Youtuber ARE already leaving for Bitchute.

Unfortunately, most of these people are right-wingers.

Their announcement is somewhat less shady than before.

They always change their guidelines without telling anyone before. I don't know now.

I'm assuming its pronounced Bit-Chute.

Also, wow, yeah. Every fourth video is some far right conspiracy or "Troll the Libs" channel.

Yeah looking at Bitchute like it's actually an alternative to youtube is frankly hilarious.

Reminds me of that right-wing reddit ripoff To Be Frank.

As if reddit isn't crawling with them already in first place. Ffs I get occasional hits when I browse by controversial and see plenty of r/conservative or r/libertarian or r/conservativememes posts

...now that I think about it, Bitchute seems kinda redundant too.

I remember when the racists set up Voat as a Reddit alternative. Wonder what happened to that since I don't hear about it anymore. I'm guessing they went back to Reddit once it folded.

I feel like Reddit's more centrist than anything else, because you have the liberal parts that thrive on the front page, the conservative parts that stick around the controversial places, and the neutral parts everywhere else.

The legend has returned.

[up][up]Voat is even more racist than reddit at its worse. The racists of Voat sent Reddit racists back crying.
