So, given AI is destroying YT, if you’re any sort of a creator at all, even if you just have some random posts from years ago that you uploaded with no intention of getting popular, you really should move your stuff to PeerTube, ideally on a self-hosted instance if you have the hardware to spare, while you still can, because things are only going to get worse for YT.
Even Odysee is a decent alternative if you want more traction, but PeerTube is more ideal as an alternative platform due to having the ability to self-host an instance there and have complete control of your content and presence down to owning the infrastructure you’re posting on.


That’s what federation is for.
Federation doesn’t generate revenue.
Revenue is generated the same way it is on YouTube, minus a single monopolistic and exploitative avenue. Federation just increases visibility and discoverability.
PeerTube has ads?
That don’t exist.
Huh?
Hey look it’s the AA-obsessed twat.
Look, what they’re saying and you’re failing to understand is that there’s no system of remuneration for creators on any federated and decentralised platform.
There you go. Hope your day is as bright as you.
