LBRY: A Free Speech, Blockchain Alternative To YouTube
So looks like there is another free speech YouTube alternative platform on the market like BitChute, except this one is Blockchain-based like Minds and you can make money on it. I'm not really a fan of Blockchain currency, but it is cool to see another platform. This one is shaping up to be superior to BitChute in some ways so I will be creating an account there. I might stop uploading to YouTube altogether or at least stop advertising the vids I upload there, opting for BitChute and LBRY instead (or here at Minds, but the video uploading tool here is wonky). What's also wonky is the YT transfer tool to BitChute, hopefully LBRY works better. Anyway, here's LBRY's mo:
"After having learned my lesson the hard way, I have one piece of advice for creators posting content online: Own Your Data Don't put yourself at the mercy of YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, SoundCloud, Snapchat, Tumblr, Vine, Google+, MySpace, or any of these other third parties! Unlike the more established content sharing platforms, LBRY is free, open and decentralized. This has several benefits over the traditional closed and centralized platforms: Content creators on LBRY remain in ownership of their content. It’s a peer-to-peer platform with no middle man standing between the creator and their audience, and no single entity controls the entire network. It’s a fairer platform, there is no arbitrary algorithm that decides who gets exposure and who doesn’t.There are no ads which means subpar content will not get rewarded just because of clickbait titles and thumbnails. Instead, content is rewarded by the community through tips and purchases." ~Michael Hebo

About me: I'm a singer/songwriter/rapper/multiinstrumentalist/ producer/comedian/short story and skit writer/conspiracy theorist who isn't afraid to challenge the status quo. My lyrics often are inspired by the conspiracy realm and the music Is experimental and eclectic; and my skits are surreal and thought provoking. I also do a bi-weekly podcast on YT, Soundcloud and BitChute that uses comedy, music, discussions and interviews to discuss conspiracies and politics. Before that, I did videos of a similar nature but now I am focused on the podcasts and my music. I have a few new albums coming out later in 2019.
