    Wait that means YouTube might be dying? Im actually mildly happy with that, maybe it ruins their Monopoly and opens the web for smaller niche platforms (not sure how they would survive AI but if they don’t reward low effort high freq it might be something?)

      For it to die there has to be an alternative for the content. I don’t see anything that could replace it at the moment.

          Peertube still needs improvements to start looking attractive.

            That’s fair. I just hope mentioning and drawing more people to the platform helps (or provides incentive) for it to improve.and become a viable YouTube replacement. Or at least a supplement to something better than YouTube.

        Rumble is getting there. If it can drop all the right wing bs it would be a decent platform. The gaming section is decent though
