I didn’t mean Nebula would be the answer but many Nebulas that would do better or worse based on their own decisions rather than everyone being beholden to a single corporate overlord.

I tried it some time ago. No algorithm behind it so if someone wasn’t already watching random Wikipedia pages this won’t make them do it.

Agreed, but I also wouldn’t mind if someone tried to work on an algorithm that would be entertaining while also being more beneficial to society. I don’t think it’s impossible to do and maybe people would be more okay with that as a replacement rather than having them quit cold turkey.

In all honesty I don’t understand how PeerTube is supposed to scale with users once it gets content. Hosting, transcoding and streaming video is super expensive. There’s also a matter of making money from videos and without financial incentive it’ll be hard to compete with commercial solutions (in a capitalist hellholes that most of us live in). Community funding can keep up with hosting text but can barely keep up with hosting pictures, let alone something more, unless you’re an internet archive or something.

People who are on Nebula already made it in Youtube and they’re so big that they just want to make more money. They provide nice service for the money but I don’t think they will come support your revolution for free.

I think they meant human-curated.
