A short while ago I asked about a youtube alternative. While I was happy to try odyssey a small subset of commenters here were fairly cynical that any solution could be developed that could challenge a big company like YT and some even suggested just paying google.

This is the original question: https://lemmy.myserv.one/post/3116340

I am now happy to learn that in fact a solution has been developed which I will be trying. In fact it is presented in a YT video: https://youtu.be/5DePDzfyWkw?si=eMGHNGsxICcLmFOW

It warms my heart to see that solutions you difficult problems can be found and that we as thinking people and as humans still have the ultimate ability to change the course of the ship. I will be giving this new video app a try that similar to the messenger apps looks like it has a chance to begin the slow eroding of a single entity having all the content. Many years I am sure but feel like my question was answered even if not on Lemmy.

Thanks everyone:)

    I am a big supporter of FUTO, the company respects your privacy. I think the concept of taking on nascent projects then funding and assisting in developing them, is the change that we need in open source app development right now. For those who didn’t read the post by Jasep, look up Louise Rossman on YouTube Grayjay, the guy is a big inspiration.
