"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

If this isn't a warning sign to leave YT as a creator, nothing will be. (youtube.com)

So, given AI is destroying YT, if you're any sort of a creator at all, even if you just have some random posts from years ago that you uploaded with no intention of getting popular, you really should move your stuff to PeerTube, ideally on a self-hosted instance if you have the hardware to spare, while you still can, because things are only going to get worse for YT.

Even Odysee is a decent alternative if you want more traction, but PeerTube is more ideal as an alternative platform due to having the ability to self-host an instance there and have complete control of your content and presence down to owning the infrastructure you're posting on.

Obviously thats true to a extent but its not like content never drives an audience. If audiences never moved we'd all still be on MySpace and Digg.

Facebook targeted an exclusive desirable user base before opening to everyone. Facebook also made key content decisions to bring in users while Myspace languished.

Reddit staff posted a lot of content to make their site seem more alive. Even then, it took a poorly received Digg update to get people to move.

You just spelled out the solution. Youtube is already making decisions people dont like; so if creators were to create content exclusive to an up and coming platform, then some of [thr audience] would switch and it would cascade over time. There is no instantaneous solution to these things. Just little decisions that lead us where we want to go.

we already have systems like patreon and buymeacoffee to self regulate monetization

Exclusive content is generally only issued behind a pay wall, which doesn't seem to be the intent of PeerTube.
