After seeing the AI age verification bullshit that was the last straw for me after literally witnessing Google slowing down my videos because I use an adblock; I made an Odysee account and migrated over to it from YouTube.
(Surprisingly, a lot of channels that I follow upload there as well.)
And I think it is a pretty solid video streaming platform. I have had zero issues with it. Apparently there are no ads, it’s decentralized, you can see the dislikes and actually discover a lot of interesting niche channels to watch. After a week of using it I realized I am not going to the YouTube anymore and Odysee is becoming more and more my “go to” place for watching a few videos and relaxing after a long day.
What do you think of it? I am not tech-savvy, so I might be missing something, but I just wanted to say that I am having a pretty good experience with Odysee.
Why make an account? There is RSS available on the site. So, use it.
If you wish to interact with the content by commenting etc
Why bother? I’m even tempted to delete the account on here after only a day. Because for me, all I affirmed to myself is that people are losers who seek out to create unnecessary drama.
