Quit sucking up to daddy Elon & Google’s centralized algos and start contributing and building on top of pro freedom platforms. #Xitter cucks will get cucked.
Dang I'm sorry to hear it. Must be such a sour feeling seeing your hard work get rugged like that at the push of a button. That said, if only there was some sort of censorship resistant protocol and related ecosystem built around hard money that supports livestreams and podcasting.
Organic Maps is amazing though, it's legitimately better than Google Maps' app in most ways for me. It's something as rare as a highly polished open source app.
Get with someone who knows how to set up a simply bitcoin relay. Self host all your content there. Use YouTube for short form and only as a way to tell people that this is where they can find the real simply. Teasers and snippets on TheirTube only.. Also is anybody working on a video-focused client? #asknostr
Note: @Simply Bitcoin doesn't appear to ever reply. Their posts here are entirely just cross-posts from X. This account foes not engage with the Nostr community. Seems to me that the occasion of being banned from a centralized platform would be a good opportunity to go Nostr-first, but will they?

That sux I had mine banned a few years ago and couldn't get it back. Automated response from bots. Thats why we nostr
Stop fighting them and move to parallel platforms. Pain now = payoff in the end. What they’re doing is not sustainable long term. I have completely given up goog/msft/aapl and I dont miss them. There are perfect alternatives. The only leverage they have on you is money… and BTC solves that problem too. 🍻

Upload your existing videos to IPFS, and link them on Dtube. Start streaming on Zap.Stream. No more corporates.

That’s really disappointing. Tell us where you wind up.
I watched the last video with rustin. That shit had me rolling but all the while I was thinking to myself 'these guys are gonna get in trouble with big algo'
Well awesome to have you here!! Forced early adoption and focus on a better system. Sorry for all your hard work and losing so much reach. Might be less people here, but the ones that are seem amazing!

We need to start a mass migration away from these centralized services. It wouldn’t take long to build up a video service that would overtake youtube.
Organic is great indeed. But is missing the user content. Locations are all there but with no reviews one need to go somewhere else to evaluate them. And the reliability of Google maps reviews is probably the best out there. Very hard to replicate or import. Huge problem.
He kept saying ' that thing that happened' referring to covid and was going hard at the imf and what not... I can't remember it all right now but it was pretty raw. I got Old man brain and can't retain much and whatnot but I remember it was damn funny I hope they get put back on but I'm not holding my breath. It's fucking bullshiy cuz there just speaking the truth but that doesn't play well these days.

Have you tried 3Speak yet? Web3 video platform running on Hive, one of the most decentralized chains. They have a quite nice App too.
I wish we could all make enough noise to start something on #nostr to make people come here by content
Remind me to tell you what I went through this past year when I’ve already proven myself, my entire life is proved it image

I have no words. But I have the same feeling that I had when my bank refused my request to transfer shitty fiat to a legitimate and legal exchange.

Been listening to you guys from the start , one of , if not my favourite shows, keep going , keep building and keep spreading the gospel ✌️🤘
Hopefully you get it back. 80% of what I used to watch on YouTube has been banned. Good luck. Hopefully we can all build outside the centralized systems.

Oh yes, I remember PeerTube. Been a long while since I've caught up with that.
Ok, that sounds like some solid points of improvement. I haven’t watched the channel much so in no position to refute them. Still I don’t wish this kind of action against any genuine and honest actor regardless on what stage they are on their bitcoin journey. And yes, I also can’t judge if they’re genuinely trying. But I’ll still give it the benefit of the doubt. Incentives can be strong, and most people are still working and measuring from the old system. Whether people simp for them is up to them. No shame in trying to muster a counter weight to youtube. Even though the solution will never be as sustainable as a technical one, like Nostr. Thank you for sharing regardless, much appreciated.
my overall point is that they are bad at their job, all while pretending theyre so great, holier than thou, bigger bitcoiners than us, etc... I support bitcoin and dont want to see a channel pushing an echo chamber narrative that seems entirely paid off by a handful of corporations already in control of the bitcoin ecosystem
Don’t you have to have filecoin and arweave coins or tokens to use those services? I thought you needed their wallets to use their services.
so pissed at how ridiculous the censorship is getting, will nice to rumble to follow you guys, not seeing rustins videos though, any links?
Time to go multi platform like Rumble. Tell your fans and they will follow.
