MODERATORS
The great thing about this guy is that he owns his own business, so YouTube revenue means jack shit to him. They can demonetize, and he wouldn't care. Personally, I think he pushes buttons to test the limits. LOL
Plus, he's on other platforms that aren't evil (like Odysee).
platforms that aren't evil (like Odysee)
idk the last time i went on there the front page was filled with antivax conspiracy bullshit
Don't forget the crypto bullshit
Sadly, I agree. Open platforms attract wackos, but the platform itself isn't evil.
He also runs educational stuff of various kinds paid for by grants as it relates to repairing your own stuff.
I know Louis is/was on Odyssey. Anyone know if he's on Peertube or has had any thoughts about Peertube?
i prefer not to use the favored nazi platforms, though I understand his reasoning.
Which platform?
Odysee
That has far right affiliation? I don’t use it; I’m simply unaware that was the case
Platforms that may want no affiliation but don't censor enough (sometimes nothing, sometimes only reported actually illegal things) usually end up becoming nazi platforms. (see the punk bar parable)
I don't think Odysee is as bad as Bitchute yet, but my hopes for it becoming good are zero.
Most alternative video platforms except peertube are crawling with Nazis and antivaxxer. Odyssey, Rumble, Bitchute...
Basically that's what happens when you make a point of absolute freedom of speech... You get all the people noone else wants to touch.
