    Yeah man, it sucks. We won’t miss Twitter because there are alternatives, i think the fediverse has the potential to be less predatory and more stable over time while facing its own issues; but for YouTube, i got nothing. Video hosting is expensive, there’s no way around it, whether it’s for centralized servers or enthusiasts running their own instance.

      There is PeerTube, which is kind of the Fediverse’s answer to YouTube.

      It doesn’t really fit to YouTube the same way Mastodon fits Twitter and Lemmy fits Reddit, but it’s relatively well used outside of the West, due to local governments blocking YouTube etc.
