    Can I just say that I’m really happy that so many yt alternatives by people who aren’t morons are starting to appear? At some point, all I saw from friends and reddit was all removedute and voat and they tried to stick this alt-right tinge to the fediverse, but alternatives to big corporate are starting to become more normal again.

      removedute and voat was always just going to be a place for nazis to go after they get banned since they don’t solve any of the problems of the thing they’re an alternative to. Still primarily for profit and doomed to enshittification. The fediverse is different because it’s an actual solution.

        Yeah, but there was a time when things were getting pretty depressing, because there was this digital TINA: it’s either us big corporates or those “special” nazis :/
