Alternatives to YouTube?

I've become disillusioned with YouTube lately, as many of my favorite radfem content creators are being banned for stupid reasons (like refusing to deny reality that you cannot change sex). There is also the fact that they are affiliated with google, which has been known to misuse private user data.

Does anyone have any alternatives that they enjoy for finding radfem, food, fitness, and artistic content? Or whatever kind of content you enjoy?

Yeah it's getting pretty bad. a lot of the alternatives seem to be far right extremist/conspiracy etc so it' s hard to find a space that is truly using critical thinking and not censoring sanity/(un)common sense. Have you tried lbry/odysee? Have they gone down the far right path? I try to curate my youtube xperience as much as possible & also many creators are creating closed/separate spaces on other platforms eg mighty networks, but yeah time will tell how they unfold...

Eh, I still watch YouTube and pay for premium because I consume music and other videos. I think for the most part they do support free speech. They have all kinds of political speech, all kinds of religious content even wack shit, ex religious content, etc. For me I don't mind YouTube but if it isn't your values, you could disengage or at least use AdBlocker to rob them of revenue. I wouldn't recommend Rumble because do you honestly think these "free speech alternatives" would allow for any woman to verbalize rape allegations, pro abortion arguments etc .. no.

In my case, Youtube has banned me from commenting because I made some radfem-leaning comments. This was after a one-day ban for “violating YT rules”. The ban is over, but they must not have liked something else I’ve said, because whenever I do comment (no matter what channel), it’s remove seconds later. This is the first time I’ve been censored for my views in all the years I’ve been on Youtube, which leads me to believe they’ve got a new mod team. The fact that radical feminists are banned, but incel and MGTOW bait stays up makes me believe it’s becoming more like reddit. I’m not a fan of Rumble (I’ve only watched backups of videos that YT have put a copywrite strike on (again, only certain creators are targeted). Some of the channels I follow went to Odysee, but I’m not a fan of their format, and it seems new creators can only post three videos at a time. There are some other options out there like DTube and Metacafe, but I haven’t tried them.

I may just have to create a new account and get AdBlocker.

Oh good point, I don't comment. I find it to be a waste of my time. Commenting only fuels the algorithm and gets me riled up. My time is their currency and business model. I refuse to give that to them.

That’s a good way of looking at it. I got into the habit of commenting on some of the smaller channels I watch, and ones where I like the viewer base. Unfortunately, a lot of them haven’t posted in a while, so I started commenting on videos in other channels. It was a mistake,
