What do you think of our lord and saviour Odysee.com?
Yeah, I have been hearing about Youtube blocking ad blocks for a while now and I thought maybe Firefox + uBlock Origin is holding ads at bay for a while, but yeah, it happened today. uBlock origin has been unable to block some ads for me and I am thinking of leaving Youtube. I searched day and night (wink wink) for an alternative and I found odysee.com/ and it seems to be open source and less prone to censorship, I was wondering what you guys were using or thinking of switching too. I think Odysee is FOSS which is giant plus for me and I absolutely love it's looks.
What do you guys think?

It's interesting, that's for sure. But the fact it is filled by nazis and the comment section is just swarming with antisemitism and bigotry is very much not something I'm willing to sift thru.
Where there is no moderation and no content policy that always happens.
ahh man, I know what you mean, but I generally don't go there for politics. There are some educational videos and some really good creators who post in parallel with YT (Vertasium for ex) and I think they are lovely.
Sorry, but "nazis and antisemitism" is not politics. It is racism. Saying something like this is nazi-speech one should not repeat
If you are talking about actual Nazis, well, I agree completely.
Saying something like what?
"Nazis is politics" is here in germany often used in a paraphrased way by far right people to justify their point of view, since nazi symbols and thing like that are forbidden by law.
By adopting such prases, even if unintentionally, one reproduces and legitimates such thinking.
Nazism stands for National Socialism - it's a political ideology, so definitely politics.
Politics is just the method of delivery. It’s racism.
racism is just a tool in the political toolbelt of fascism
That’s exactly how politics works
Edit: All I mean is that politics is literally nothing more than a way to carry ideas, in this case, to govern. While unethical, racism is an idea. Nazism is clearly politics
You seem to believe that you're impervious to politics.
As I understand it that’s quite a jump. What do you mean?
You don't have to go for the fascism, racism, and disinformation. By shear quantity alone, they'll be in your next 2-3 videos if you let it autoplay the next recommended video.
I haven't found a reliable way to just play my followed channels without manually making a queue of videos.
Why would you auto play and not just pick the videos you want to watch? I used to use odysee and I almost never saw racist videos. The comment section on the other hand was a cesspit. I believe you can actually pick what comment section you want and use comments from matador or something else.

Not wanting to use a platform that supports nazis isn't really politics I don't think
