Dunno, but Vimeo hasn’t been as public about anti-right rules.
If they see a significant migration from YouTube, they may get the point and be less partisan. And if nothing else, the point is to just get off YouTube as much as reasonably possible - showing our disapproval of their policies by taking business elsewhere, and encouraging others to provide replacement.

Fight to keep using a service which overtly hates our kind?

I agree, there's several other videos sites we could/should be referencing...

Bitchute and Gab ai which started Gab ai TV, a video sharing site.

You should be bitching to Youtube, not Freepers.

Let THEM know your thoughts about their beliefs and practices.

An interesting video, is an interesting video...period. So long as it’s not insulting to anyone, and isn’t promoting some evil religion, or culture...let it ride as either, funny, informative, educational, or exposure.

The individual posters on Youtube are not to blame, per se...they are just sharing information in one of the “only” places available.

I don’t let web pages, businesses, institutions, etc pick out what I read, see, hear, or post...if “Youtube” gets under your sking that much, then I’d suggest you do what I do with the MSM...stop watching it.

If we stopped posting Youtubes; if we stopped posting CNN and Compost crap; if we started avoiding any and all leftist agitprop; if we started boycotting any and all leftist sites, stores, businesses and individuals - we truly would have to unplug outselves from life and go live off the grid in a cabin in the woods. Totallly disconnected and apart from the world.

I have adblocker so I don’t think youtube gets any revenue from me.


Not sure about that. I think they bill advertisers and pay posters by the number of times a video is viewed. Youtube may not know of care if the ads are actually loading in your browser.

Just FYI, YouTube is Google.

So whatever you want to do to shun YouTube should be applied across the board to Google Search, Gmail, etc.

Yes. YouTube doesn't hate us, just the people who own it.

YouTube, Reddit, Twitter, Facebook are the most popular websites in the world. That's how conservatives get their message out. That's how Trump won the election.

We don't cede this high ground! That's not winning! We fight for it!

Megan....just about everyone hates us.

And there is a lot of very good stuff on YouTube.

I will never in a million years understand the mindset of people who think we advance our cause by posting only here on Free Republic, 4,154th most popular website in America, and cede Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, and Reddit to the Left. Those aren't their sites! They belong to us too!

I swear, conservatives are turning into a bunch of pussies and it is so discouraging!

Good post!

I see no advantage to “boycotting” Youtube. We choose what we view or not throughout the Internet. Better to file compaints one has to Youtube itself.

I think it is a waste for people to start entire threads about decades-old music just because they like the music or went to that concert.

Like it or not, YouTube is the venue most used by everyday people uploading content before it gets censored by the media. The site was bought by Google and Google is behind much of the censorship and bullying.

Remember the chick that was in the car with Philandro Castille when he was shot by the Minnesota policeman? That was evidence before government could rinse or spin it and forced, in my mind, a fairer investigation. People at FR deserve to see such raw video.

If JimRob wants a ban on YouTube, that’s fine but I believe it is counterproductive.
