News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

we have alternatives to both. people just need to switch.
but youtube is really hard to replace.
Don't worry, there's TikTok. /s
SEO might actually enshittificate YT or make it dependant on AI. Both are hard to deal with from a privacy or open source POV.
Nebula.tv has some promise. It's not free but it's very cheap and creator-owned. Plus there's no ads. But it can never be a true replacement for Youtube because it doesn't allow just anyone to upload there.
What about Peertube as an alternative?
Like, I use neither. Just curious.
Hard to monetize + server costs
Perfect from the user side but not that great for content creators and server owners
My alternative to youtube is reading books from the local library and playing the guitar.
The decline of reddit and youtube especially has done wonders to my quality of life.
Newpipe is great, for me. I don't have a steady stream of recommendations or shorts, just content I actually subscribe to and whatever is trending if I go there, or manually search for.
The infection of ads into every corner of Social media legitimately was making me a worse person, with a shorter attention span and no mental clarity.
Your best bed with youtube is odysee. It is not perfect but much better then youtube.
