Thanks, Google. I was trying to cut down my usage of YouTube.

What are the best Fedi alternatives?

[-] sefra1@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 weeks ago

Peertube, but lacks content.

[-] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

If that's the only issue, then it's good enough.

[-] P1k1e@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's what Lemmy was when I started up after reddit killed their 3rd party apps. Like a year later Lemmy exploded

[-] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Peertube it is, then.

When I checked the Fedi alternatives were far-right hangouts. Part of that unfortunate "free speech absolutist" == "asshole" phase.

It's not Fediverse but I like Nebula. It's more like a co-op so I don't mind paying for it at all.

Not fediverse, but Nebula is good

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 3 points 2 weeks ago

Invidious if you don't wanna install a bunch of software

[-] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

I mean alternative platforms, not alternative ways to use YouTube (although this looks useful in the meantime, so thanks anyway)

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 weeks ago

Nebula sound promising.

I like nebula but it is pretty limited. Its mostly educational and essay type stuff. For the price it is amazing and the only streaming platform i have anymore. But i dont know if id call it a youtube alt unless you only watch that type of video. They have a handful of other things too but the variety just isnt there yet. The other thing i both like and dislike is the lack of comments.

I do recommend it though. Crazy affordable, owned by the creators, ad free. Just kind of niche still

I don't think it's fedi but I like odysee
