Bloomberg can suck a bag of dicks

Put it on peertube, maybe?

Can’t hurt to cross-upload, the reality is that GN would need a YT channel to be commercially viable, but I think they are better positioned than most to use PeerTube as secondary channel.

How did you arrive at this “reality”?

I am on the Threadiverse, so it is a reasonable assumption that I use the internet…

“I use the internet” explains absolutely nothing.

It was a joke. You can’t seriously think that PeerTube is viable alternative to YT (as a sole distribution channel).

I say this as someone who does use PeerTube for a few content creators that mirror from YT.

The hell does Bloomberg have to do with gaming videos

Are you going to answer my question or just continue replying solely to insult me?

No insults intended. Apologies if it came off that way.

The market share dynamics, UI/UX issues (average person finds federation to be a difficult concept) and lack of an “easy to pick up” monetisation system make PeerTube non-viable as a sole distribution source for a commercial (or even part-time income) channel.

I would argue the market share difference is by the far the biggest factor (other factors can arguably be accounted for with varying degree of success).

(average person finds federation to be a difficult concept)

People thought the same about YouTube at some point.

lack of an “easy to pick up” monetisation system

All the monetization systems are the same, minus one, which is the absolute worst part of the platform anyway.

The market share would grow ten thousand fold overnight if Steve moved.

I would support GN opening a PeerTube channel (and I would watch their PeerTube channel), I just don’t think it’s viable to completely move off YT at this point.

Regarding monetisation, we of course will have to radically change internet monetisation models with a bigger focus on scheduled donations (for the platform and content creators) and a perks system for incentives and perhaps a bit torrent-enhanced style distribution system. But this is a long term thing, there is the here and now.

Was it really neccessary to fly there?

I’d be interested to hear your proposals for alternative business models.

Apparently Bloomberg ordered the takedown of a GamersNexus video because they used one of their clips. The video was about the smuggling of GPUs into China, so the assumption is that Bloomberg is actually trying to silence the story.

It’s not an alternative business model. It’s the same business model on an alternative platform.

Then the fact that YT is more popular and the annoying catch-22 continues ever thus.

The video in the post mentions that Blomberg has their own coverage of Nvidia GPUs and the black market which obviously isn’t as detailed and probably gets information wrong and they certainly want to silence this true reporting of the facts.

I don’t know what that has to do with anything. Yes, YouTube is more popular, what good does that do you if you’re banned from it?

If you’re banned, nothing. But until then, YT is where the audience is. That’s why no-one/very few have jumped ship. A creator needs a large audience on a platform to make it worthwhile for them while an audience needs a good selection of creators to make the platform worthwhile to jump to. Until content creators band together to decide on a platform for everyone to jump to, we’re stuck right where we are.
