#2Makes me wonder if LBRY went with Lightning instead of creating a shitcoin token they would probably still be around today and maybe even integrating with Nostr.

#3> BUT unlike YouTube, we can't strike, shadow-ban, or demonetize you just because we disagree
Ah, right. Too much content moderation is the biggest problem with YouTube. /s

Just because it's not THE biggest problem doesn't mean that it isn't A problem.
More specifically not YouTubes moderation itself but the way in which its systems can be abused.

#5How is the infrastructure and bandwidth paid for?

But controlling what you see is easy! Just don't watch it. As opposed to controlling what you can't, which you are at the mercy of YouTube to provide.
Or is it that you want to control what other people see?

#7Congrats on launch!
Login button: 3 times I see the word "Nsec" without any explanation, that would lose a lot of youtubers from transitioning
But a bigger issue is that googling about nsec tells me it's a very bad practice: "Some argue that the user should never enter their nsec into an input field at the risk of being compromised by the service. Given the nature of nostr, users cannot recover from a leaked private key and must take greater precaution than they would with a username/password combination." https://nostrdesign.org/docs/how-to/sign-in-sign-up/
(also pip for some reason stops playing when I switch to another page on the site)

Yes. Most reasonable people don’t want anyone sharing CSAM, for example.

#9So how will you cope with DMCA takedown requests and what will you do when all major medias companies will sue your ass?
You may try to pretend it is not your content and explain how the protocol works and all that but as long as you will host a frontend and own the domain name you will be considered the one to sue.

Right. But “lol, we’ll just get rid of moderation, bro” is an incredibly naive and dangerous non-solution.
I think it frustrates many stereotypical “tech bro” types that there exist problems that are difficult or impossible for technology to solve. Content moderation is a messy business. But it’s necessary business.
