Using Monero on a device with a spyware operating system defeats the point. Let’s learn the basics of rejecting Google’s surveillance and some different alternative Android operating systems: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/what-is-a-degoogled-phone/
Excellent to hear you are creating a new video platform without reliance on google/youtube. I’ve been trying to switch to odysee and others but still fall back ocassionally on NewPipe and Invidious and other services that rely on youtube when I can’t find what I’m after elsewhere.
I also only use Odysee as a viewer not a content creator so did not realize ID was required on signup.
Will this new video platform you are working on be decentralized? I understand LBRY got targeted pretty hard in the larger crypto crackdowns and other video streaming alternatives have faced challenges and pressures in the market, legally and otherwise.
I’d hate to see another great centralized alternative get built up and gain traction and user adoption only to be torn down later on.
Hey thanks for the reply. So we were using Flux and Peertube together at first but it was too slow. Now it’s on Bunny CDN as they respect GDPR and we registered as EU. If we get big enough, we’ll rent the servers for the CDN ourselves. The issue with Peertube by itself is that the other people sharing it could be using cloudflare, AWS, ect. then what is the point… For example Techlore uses AWS for his peertube. And filecoin / IPFS is too slow right now for delivery, as the file hosts are not rewarded by bandwidth.
We need to go back to torrents so bad… Torrenting had solved the question of sharing video files some time ago.
Bonus points for i2p + torrenting. Qbittorrent v4.6rc has i2p integration baked in.
