On one hand it is a shame to remove alternatives to YouTube. Odysee had RSS feeds and I never had much trouble with the player. On the other hand I never understood why they tried to tie it into the blockchain or cryptocurrency. I didn't understand how that helped either users or the creators.
Peertube has RSS. I hope this pushes folks to Peertube. I personally recommend and love TILVids. You can set up an account on TILVIDs and even follow folks on other instances. Or spin up your own Peertube if you're brave enough, I could never figure it out but I plan on trying again some day. :D aNot that I want the alt-right stuff, but if they go on their own server everywhere else just DeFederates them and I never have to see it.
But yeah, LBRY was all in on the Crypto BS. Honestly kind of hoping this is just the tip of the iceberg for the crypto companies playing in the arena.
you can follow them with your Mastodon account, as well. and even with your Lemmy account, as far as I can tell.
