Why can't free speech platforms ever catch on?
Like remember Bitchute?
>>
More perks and financial incentives to be a content creator on YouTube which is supported by big tech like Google.
>>
>>539654150
They don't provide free speech, they only choice you have are which views are censored.
>>
odysee has a jeet ceo
>>
>>539654150
Because they get flooded with shit like gore and child porn. Censorship is necessary sometimes, shockingly.
>>
Bitchute set up their company in the UK. Which means that as a legal entity they have to comply with UK law. Which means if someone reports a video for "hateful" content or "misinformation" or similar, they have to remove it or at least geo block it. For a while at least, when it flew under the radar it had a good run, but it was eventualyl brought to heel legally by the UK government (and its Jewish masters).

>Odysee
It had potential, the idea was good in theory. But its biggest and most limiting factor was that it it's a jeet that's running it and he doesn't really know what the fuck he's doing. He had big ambitions but I think technically and just intellectually he can't deliver on the things he wants and the actual viewers want. Look at how he fucked up the Stripe payments situation. He preemptively removed Stripe like a sperg. That was always a large weakness in how he set up the platform, that all payments had to go through his stripe merchant account. If the idea is that you want people to be able to run their own "nodes" and go the decrentalised route that you could've had a solution where you had a different entity that converted the crypto tokens into money. Similar to how people cash out Bitcoin or Ethereum or whatever. That's a lot harder to shut down, especially if you could get things like exchange support for the crypto. Last point, I actually had a look at the codebase, and it's very stagnant and the docs and so on are broken/very out of date. So I'm not just speculating when I say the jeet bit off more than he could chew here. Anyone can just fork a project and promise the world. It takes technical knowhow to even just maintain your fork and keep it up to date let alone promise lots of new features.

If anyone is thinking of starting their own platform, set up an LLC in the US and make the most of the second amendment or at least a state that actually recognises it.
>>
>>539654150
back when I looked at it it was tied to some crypto bullshit
>>
>>539654837
also any platform that doesn't appeal to the general public is just going to be a cringy echo chamber.
>>
>>539654150
Because free speech in this context always ends up being people who dont really wanna make interesting content but rather A - wanna uploading their daily 4 hour schizo podcast on why lizards control the world or B - Wanna up load really weird gory shit.
Neither of which the average person is interesting in watching.
>>
>>539654150
there never was free speech every media outlet is controlled by the feds
>>
>>539654837
You have to know what you are looking for to begin with. There are several conferences censored on jewtube, very very interesting.
>>
Because there's no incentive for normies to use it. The concept of simply moving over to one website is a surprisingly daunting task for normies. Slightly unrelated but my dad used to regularly watch Tucker on Fox News but after he got canned and moved over to twitter, my dad stopped watching/talking about him.

>make the most of the second amendment
Easy, Paddy - we're not in The Troubles anymore, you know.
>>
>>539655612
Meh. Is that because your boomer dad doesn't use twitter, or because he agreed with why they fired Tucker?
>>
>>539655759
Aren't we?
>>
>>539654150
most media are not profitable, so they require a billionaire who wants to shovel money into it
>>
>>539654150
I use Bitchute every day.
>>
>>539654150
The problem is always money. The problem is major corporations are lockstep with the censorship of ideas. So, they either sell out to them and shut down free speech, or they seek "alternative" sources of ad revenue from certified grifters funded by CIA/Mossad whose sole purpose is to discredit the platforms with their stupid content.
>>
>>539654150
i use odysee when i need to find some brenton tarrant videos or what not

and then i repost them to altchans

good times
>>
Why would anyone put effort into producing high quality videos for an audience of 100 deranged fringe incels?

>my dad used to regularly watch Tucker on Fox News but after he got canned and moved over to twitter, my dad stopped watching/talking about him.
So many boomers have their tv set on FoxNews literally ALL DAY LONG. I used to work for an appliance repair company doing service calls. I'd go to 3 houses in a row and every boomer had it on, even if they weren't actually watching it.
It's called "programming" for a reason.
>>
They always get flooded by conservatard/alt right grifters trying to out big brain everyone with 0 (zero) other content.
>>
>>539654150
They haven't updated their now dysfunctional crypto for years now, so nobody makes content for free.
>>
>>539654150
Because let's assume they are truly free speech and independent, they will be besieged by fines from worldwide organizations, private people and governments that will harass them and their infrastructure by saying that whatever they host is illegal under some bullshit law and all of this comes after all the billions you need to actually invest to have a multimedia platform that is able to host high quality videos and other media for long periods of time for a massive userbase.
>>
all the free speech platforms either get flooded by cheese pizza or schizo nonsense gets flooded onto it, all orchestrated by the government

the government loves putting up schizo bait on websites and once you attract a few it just snowballs without you having to do anything

I can post youtube videos but not Odysee videos, probably a likely cause of why it's not popular on 4chan.
>>
Elon should buy odysee and bankrupt YouTube.
>>
>>539654783
bitchutes fine in america but google wont list them in search results.
I find it better for censored stuff like
>Niggertales
>Moon Man crank dat etc
anything thats been censored. Theres not as much propoganda even tho its spewed, both sides. mostly generic ultra neocon shit
