if pewd is smart about his money he will diversify his interests

Yeah I agree but having your 100mil YouTube channel taken down is also not smart

if his channel gets taken down BitChute will become a household name overnight

youtube wont do that to their monopoly

Yeah I wish he would switch

i wish they would ban him

Youtube might get hit hard by the government

Plus they are already bleeding money

pewdie can make or break any platform

Alphabet more accurately

I bet he’d get 10 million subs in the first day if he switched to bitchute or atleast 5

And by switch I mean his channel gets taken down

Or he says I’m not using YouTube anymore

It'd crash Bitchute

and they can't handle that

Yeah

I hadn’t thought about that

Honestly, it's a terrible site.

Horible idea

That’s the problem

Youtube is already in the red

I doubt unless someone just said fuck it I’ll give you 5 billion dollars just for servers they’re be able to even start being meaningful competition

The whole concept relies on users downloading and constantly seeding every video they watch, or else the video disappears

does torrenting tech require servers?

seeding seems like a lot of the buffering comes from users

i dont understand the tech i admit

thats just because theyre not a multibillion dollar website

@What Would Jack Conte Do? No, all the users act as distributed server

So no users watching, or no one seeding (sharing) it, means no more video

if pewdie crashed bitchute it would be great publicity, and bitchute would improve over time provided they had advertisers and could find a way to make an actual profit unlike youtube ever has

you cant really blame bitchute for having a torrentbased infrastructure but hopefully they are looking at other options should they gain mainstream appeal, without which, they couldnt afford to do it any differently in the first place

but its true that pushing a profit out of a web video platform is a huge issue

There's solutions for IPFS based systems possibly

they could reduce bandwidth somewhat by using a download-only system while retaining a clientbased player that would play your files locally

that way you dont have people streaming the same video 6 times

that introduces space issues for the user of course, unfortunately

another idea is to make users pay a small subscription fee if they use more than a certain amount of bandwidth per month or else get throttled

we're at the point where we should probly be paying for our infinite free video platfrom

i mean youtube's entire profit problem is caused because their services are free

back in the day users just wouldnt use services if they had to pay for them

but now we have shit like Patreon, netflix, hulu etc.

pandora, spotify. . .
