let the normies have youtube

2016-09-21 18:50:07 UTC  

an alternative that doesn't care what the user puts up outside porn/snuff

2016-09-21 18:50:33 UTC  

so you mean liveleak

2016-09-21 18:50:49 UTC  

good thinking mydude

2016-09-21 18:51:07 UTC  

but does liveleak partition their porn and gore?

2016-09-21 18:51:23 UTC  

pretty sure you either do that or go full-on porns

2016-09-21 18:53:41 UTC  

come to think of it, it's for the best that they keep the porn and the gore there

2016-09-21 18:54:07 UTC  

you're not gonna get money for posting on pornhub rite

2016-09-21 18:54:13 UTC  

i mean, probably not

HOW TO SOLDER BGA COMPONENTS - Sponsored by BLACKED.COM

2016-09-21 18:54:48 UTC  

the owners will be tempted to make the site PC like youtube

2016-09-21 18:54:51 UTC  

kek

2016-09-21 18:55:10 UTC  

i think google only uses youtube to gather info

2016-09-21 18:55:19 UTC  

like it only makes money because they have a huge platform

2016-09-21 18:55:26 UTC  

they lose money on youtube itself

2016-09-21 18:55:50 UTC  

i don't even pretend to understand how google makes money anymore. they just do

2016-09-21 18:56:20 UTC  

youtube costs so much to host i heard it loses lots of money

2016-09-21 18:56:28 UTC  

i'm sure there's a logical explanation but everyone just says "ADSENSE YO"

2016-09-21 18:56:38 UTC  

probably.

2016-09-21 18:57:00 UTC  

Alphabet might literally just be a mandate of the accounting department.

2016-09-21 18:57:10 UTC  

so they can keep their losers segregated and understood

2016-09-21 18:57:35 UTC  

but that's wallstreetbets talk

2016-09-21 18:57:44 UTC  

ohhh

2016-09-21 18:57:46 UTC  

interesting

2016-09-21 18:58:35 UTC  

im js itd be hard to start a youtube alternative from nothing

2016-09-21 18:58:50 UTC  

if u expect it to grow

2016-09-21 18:59:06 UTC  

nah you could

2016-09-21 18:59:23 UTC  

bandwidth has gotten cheaper and you could put some limits in to save b/w

2016-09-21 18:59:53 UTC  

for example you could mandate that people use your encoder and do h265/vp10 encoding on THEIR machines using your client and save a ton on compute alone

2016-09-21 19:00:13 UTC  

spread your vids across low cost providers and make a rough and tumble cdn of sorts

2016-09-21 19:00:31 UTC  

the labor is the worst part but you could make that more streamlined

2016-09-21 19:00:35 UTC  

mods i mean

2016-09-21 19:01:00 UTC  

now, would you actually do it? probably not

2016-09-21 19:01:26 UTC  

and yes i'm mentioning encoding formats that don't work in current browsers cause if you do it today you're gonna aim for 2+ years in the future

2016-09-21 19:01:57 UTC  

and the bandwidth savings alone would get you a little bit ahead, which is kinda cheating and being the more agile guy

2016-09-21 19:05:45 UTC  

the reason that new sites don't pop up like mushrooms is more because when shit becomes a utility like yt is, the work vs reward becomes so small that nobody cares anymore. but look at little things like openings.moe for an example of what a targeted application of a similar use case would be, a simple illustration of an analogue to the relationship between a smaller entity solving a smaller problem that the larger utility just isn't designed to

2016-09-21 19:06:12 UTC  

what reason a shitty company like VEVO can't do the same? lack of imagination

2016-09-21 19:06:25 UTC  

politics

2016-09-21 19:06:42 UTC  

there are a ton of chink video sites though

2016-09-21 19:13:16 UTC  

what does the 'look at little things like openings' part mean ?
