Good luck <@601223089828921354> - Does the solution involve a nuclear device headed towards Silicon Valley?
Hi, @CCRed95.
¿Why not join an established outfit like mewe or something?
I think alt tech developers are going about this all wrong., You cannot build another YouTube, because nobody can afford to willingfully lose $80 Billion in a quarter to maintain control over human attention like Google can.
Im not sure ive heard of that, what is mewe
@Mariachi_Walrus thanks
The solution, I think, is post-hoc DOM tree manipulation served and administered by a browser extension, and provided with results from a server-side indexing and scanning service that allows the user to search for videos based on an algorithm that I want OPEN SOURCED and transparent. Content neutral.
The problem with censorship is ultimately about human heuristics (laziness). Anyone can visit BitChute. It's just marginally less convenient, so people don't. (Also BitChute is blacklisted from Tech cartel sites)
Also, the extension would have the ability to enter a "creator mode"
If you devise a system to circumvent censorship you will find that Google will blacklist your tool and thus its reach is already 1000x smaller because most people cannot find or know how to install your tool.
and in creator mode, you can set up "upload templates" and hook up your DLive, Vimeo, Bitchute, Dailymotion, etc etc accounts. And when you upload any video on youtube, you can choose to automatically upload and deploy on all of your ccounts
Same as what happened with Gab & Dissenter
Gab and Dissenter are still active platforms
you can side-load the extension
Yes, but they have been hamstrung
also Dissenter has their own browser fork
But the association and multi target upload would do this... it would create an association of mirrors of your videos, so I would be able to know if and when any of these links are targeted or taken down, and i could dispatch a notification to the owner saying "Youtube took down this video, but all users that go to this link will still be able to view the video using the Bitchute mirror"
and we post hoc INJECT via the dom tree the bitchute player right into the youtube ui.
Also, this has infinite possibilites of insane levels of expansion
sounds pretty compelling
so for example, Matt Christensen's > Videos tab would have an injected bar at the top
and that would be "heres all the videos that youtube attempted to censor"
Another idea: Injection of REPLACEMENT SUPERCHATS service. essentially anyone who has the extension installed will be using an alt service that is NOT censored and NOT naughty word scanned
and we only take 15% fee instead of Google's 30%
CC,
I got a YouTube channel, just like half the world... I don't want to spend 3 weeks reloading all that. ¿You gonna add a mirror option?
Oh yeah, we could add a "batch upload all previous content with this deployment template"
I think one of the things that holds back BitChute is the lack of a recommendation feature based on trending videos
Ya, ok, sure. Whatever it is you call it.
Recommendations introduce people to new content, that is very useful
basically itd work by using a youtube downloader service, and then just use the upload API and upload the video using the same Title, Subtitle, Tags, whatever
Recommendations is actually the thing i started this project with
that and search
But developing a provably politically neutral algorithm is not easy and it actually could cause MORE damage if i accidentally create a right-wing content bubble
So i have lists of mined content creators from the left wing, I dont have that many, maybe 50 or so
But we could also have a super simple website, where you could go and just drop your channel URL or youtube username into the submission form, and "sign yourself up as an alternative content creator"
So ANY creator, left, right, center, CIA operative, anybody, could register their content as alt media content in the server side content indexer and serve as the suggestions / "up next" video provider
Anybody but Main Stream News.
I think users should be able to customize their recommendations and have all that info locally
Wait, ¿how do you stop them?
Yes, I would like to do what youtube SAYS they want to do but are lying about
