OAN embraces Rumble after experiencing YouTube censorship
Reclaim The Net ^ | December 6, 2020 | Cindy Harper

Posted on 12/06/2020 3:25:08 PM PST by McGruff

One America News (OAN) Network has announced switching from YouTube to the censorship-free alternative Rumble. The shift follows YouTube suspending the conservative news outlet from uploading new videos for a week towards the end of last month and demonetized the increasingly-popular outlet.

Many have been seeking censorship-free alternatives to Big Tech so that they can express their views freely and Rumble is a rapidly-growing alternative.

Other factors that have helped boost Rumble’s popularity among conservatives include promotion by popular conservative commentator Dan Bongino, who has an ownership stake in both Rumble and the Twitter alternative Parler.

You know, I just don’t get it.

Run away from YouTube, A Google Subsidiary... To Rumble... Yet Rumble requires MANY Google spy-bot Java Apps for full functionality.

At least BitChute doesn’t require Google.

People are so clueless.

They are going to lose on people finding their videos though...

A good way to counter this is to put up videos on youtube that do not contain the actual video... just named the same and the video itself will have a click link inside of it AND in the description that will link to the real thing on Rumble. That way they can still announce the video there but not actually host the content that will get it pulled.

Someone, either YouTube or the owner of the video, has today locked down a video of GA Dem state senator Elena Parent eloquently slamming Dominion in the senate at the state capitol in 2019. A few days ago, she was singing Dominion’s praises, since they got the results they wanted.

Here’s the original video thread:

Here’s that video of her at Rumble:

I've been trying out Rumble on my Apple devices and like it a lot re. quality and ease of use. YouTube's only advantage is the immense library that has accumulated on the platform. This is a users perspective.

Censorship and monitory issues are prime issues that will drive content owners to Rumble and advertisers will follow their customers.

Ever watch a video on BitChute without it halting and buffering over and over again? I haven’t, and I have a pretty decent broadband connection. They have a good platform model, but they don’t have the infrastructure to support the bandwidth needed to stream the video content. Decentralization is great for some things, video content isn’t one of them. Or things haven’t yet evolved to make it less painful to watch.

Actually, I have occasionally encountered that but not often enough to complain about it. And I have a pretty bad internet connection, and it wasn’t even much worse when I had old school Hughesnet Satellite Internet.

Admittedly a couple of their seed servers can be kind of slow to respond, although once they do start sending the data, usually they do OK.

And if you want to trade your privacy from Google spying, for an occasional few moments of buffering far be it from me to say you shouldn’t.

I tried both Rumble and Parler. Gave up on both of them, deleted my accounts. All hype, nothing substantial, and all they are doing is getting people’s hopes up and then finding out that the information they provide is not doing anyone any good.

Thanks for the example. It works fine. The site is faster and has a more solid feel than YouTube.

You’re being tracked anyway, if you don’t use a VPN, block trackers with the right kind of browser, stop WebRTC, etc.

yes, I did try - multiple times. Otherwise, I wouldn’t bother to ask.
