Sadly I dont think i could make one but ive seen peertube and its a bit off feeling( i cant place why) but thought hey maybe those who can make something like that will see the post. (Also I would love to scare youtube with competition cause they freaking need it)
Ill start I NEED to be able to play audio on a Mobile device when the screen is turned off youtube makes you pay for that 1 line of freaking code! Heckin BS
If you want to play YouTube in the background on iPhone check out vinegar.
Or the Brave browser will let you! And Picture in Picture!
Ad block is too vital sadly and having an ad blocker now is tricky
You can have it with Firefox on iPhone.
can it even be done?
Oh definitely, just need a site that collects different video communities from the fediverse and throws them infront of an audience, if there was a special site that helped creators get set up it would go faster too
I think the big challenge is the recommendation engine. If a service ever got popular enough to have a large set of videos there would be a need to discover them.
I’d probably post quite a bit of content (music, etc) on a youtube alternative if I could expect it to not be copyright-striked. (and if anyone would watch it. The current PeerTube instances seem very barren.)
You would absolutely get DMCA takedowns. YouTube’s system is designed to allow copyrighted content without getting it completely removed.
