A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This doesn't sound great. I feel like this could possibly backfire on them. At the very least I would hope they would reduce the cost of youtube premium then. If you aren't sharing a family plan with friends it's really expensive
Let's all click on the link that says 'I feel like I'm falsely flagged' to give them some noise to work with.
I think this is because YouTube pushed so much its shorts (tiktok knockoff) but they're not as profitable. My guesstimate is that at least 70% of traffic is in shorts now so longer content is rarely played along with longer ads
People should develop a federated video hosting service. It will be expensive but I know the community can do it.
LBRY is worth looking into, it's not quite federated but it is decentralized and based on blockchains.
You almost had me until

peertube?
Doesn’t Peertube already do this?

Hands up if you've been through Facebook's ban appeal process and know that this, too, will consist of an automated decision to deny your appeal months after the ban would have ended anyway.
