I wanted to list and ask for platforms that can substitute YouTube.

Here it’s:

  • NASA+, Space and Astronomy Videos.
  • Vimeo, Professional Videos and Documentaries.
  • TED, Talks and presentations.
  • PeerTube, there is not a lot of videos, but some creators upload there.
  • ARTE, Euro documantries and analysis.
  • RedBull TV, Sports related videos.
  • RTE Player, Journalism.
  • BBC videos, diverse topics.
  • NFB Films, Canadian Films.
    • EngineerGaming@feddit.nl

      Yeah. Such as: blocking the playback until the user disabled their adblocker, making it impossible to access 18+ content without signing up, repeatedly breaking third-party clients and frontends, apparently blocking the playback if the user is behind a VPN… I am now afraid they might eventually demand a login just to use the site at all. Doing my part in downloading everything I like at least.

      Youtube is owned by Google. People who are avoiding it typically do so for that reason, plus the enshittification of the platform over the past few years.
