So Elon gutted Twitter, and people jumped ship to Mastodon.
Now spez did… you know… and we’re on Lemmy and Kbin.
Can we have a YouTube to PeerTube exodus next? With the whole ad-pocalypse over there, seems like Google is itching for it.
Just for conversations sake, what is Odysee really? I’ve only heard of it in the context of crypto stuff, but is it selfhostable? A federated video platform that let’s you “mine”, in the loosest terms, crypto from viewers sounds interesting but I don’t know how it actually works.
Edit: looks like it’s at least partially open source, maybe fully. It’s centrally-hosted and funded by ads, premium subscriptions, and some sort of crypto scheme that can boost a video’s discoverability.
I’ve actually heard of some of the creators though (unlike PeerTube), so that’s interesting

I’m reading their FAQ here, but I’m still not sure how the money and hosting side works yet https://help.odysee.tv/category-basics/whatisodysee/
