PeerTube PeerTube is a decentralized, free and open source alternative to video broadcasting services. Peertube is federated, which means anyone with the know-how can host their own instance of peertube where they can upload videos to, and anyone on another peertube instance can find their server/account and view their videos. For an example of a federated service already in use, look no further than Email. swedneck • Jul 2018 • 29 agrees and 8 disagrees Disagree Agree No ads, Open-Source, the best one ! Guest • Dec 2018 • 11 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree Out of the decentralized, open source alternatives to YouTube, this one is probably the best.

DarkRedman • Aug 2018 • 1 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Open-Source, decentralized, federated. It is already great and will become even better for sure ! Guest • Dec 2018 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Not bad. its federations of multiple links of different sites and different video hosting places. But, there are some issues like lack of functional issues to like; simplistic navigation, more proper view-able UI, and loading times. Overall? Not bad. Guest • Oct 2019 Disagree Agree Peertube has (nearly) all important features that youtube offers, while it provides us with a platform, that is ours in our hands Guest • Apr 2018 • 3 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree It has most of the important features that youtube offers and also a free product without ad's. joseph_mathew • Jul 2019 Disagree Agree Open source, decentralized and federated banana • May 2019 Disagree Agree Open source AND decentralised means it can never turn against the userbase.

Vimeo Vimeo can help with video collaboration, video distribution and video everything else. . Different business model entirely, not enough of the same content. zane • Nov 2017 • 31 agrees and 11 disagrees Disagree Agree Vimeo is a commercial video hosting solution mainly used by companies and is not a video sharing platform for content creators. UnleavenedEagle • Jun 2020 Disagree Agree Been around long enough. Website is fast and speedy. A strong Youtube contender if they change it up to a marketplace type site. michellesayssup • Aug 2019 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree There are upload limits and it caters to a different audience stranger195 • Jul 2019 • 5 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree No good content. The search is broken. My videos never get views. Guest • Dec 2019 • 0 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree Vimeo was the first site to offer full HD online video, they have some interesting monetisation features and a clean interface. What's best though it's that the vimeo community is overwhelmingly creators and people who know what they're doing, so you won't find many cat videos or talentless basement dwellers filling up the site. RemovedUser • May 2017 • 26 agrees and 14 disagrees Disagree Agree Vimeo is way different. It seems to be more about short films, design, and things like that. This is not close enough to YouTube Guest • Nov 2018 • 5 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree User interface is pretty bad, very unintuitive on PC. Mobile is surprisingly user friendly. Also, in my personal experience, three accounts I've created have been disabled due to suspicious activity. I frequently use a VPN as I travel a lot. I just watched videos and like stuff - not even commented. Kind of annoying.

NewPipe NewPipe is a lightweight YouTube front-end for Android. It doesn't need the YouTube-API or any Google Play Services, as NewPipe only parses the YouTube website... NewPipe is an app that uses plays YouTube videos. It relies on YouTube. It is not a separate video network. Guest • Apr 2019 • 23 agrees and 6 disagrees Disagree Agree What could be a better alternative to watching YouTube than watching YouTube without all the nasty Google spying going on? NewPipe brings exactly that to the Android platform. I'm very happy it exists. Use this instead of Google's YouTube app to prevent Google constantly monitoring what you like to watch. JohnFastman • Dec 2016 • 37 agrees and 11 disagrees Disagree Agree NewPipe isn't an alternative to YouTube, but rather to YouTube's Android APP. It's packed with features the official app doesn't have all while being lighter on resources and having no spying on the client side. pabloalcr • Oct 2017 • 19 agrees and 3 disagrees Disagree Agree It's just a great youtube frontend, for android users. Can watch & download all content, without all the heavy google overhead. Wish I could find something similar for windows! Guest • May 2020 Disagree Agree Fast and allow background playing! Really good alternative. I recommend it !

VidLii This site mimics old YouTube and has the 2008 header and 2009 looking pages. This fixes many problems YouTube has, like lack of customization and community issues. Share... The fact that it has the similar old youtube 2006 layout and is much more simple in the navigation. It also has the 5 star rating system which we all loved.

Dailymotion Dailymotion is a video sharing service website, headquartered in the 18th arrondissement, Paris, France. Dailymotion is the largest video site in the world after... DailyMotion offers nice options to manage and monetise your videos. And it's not linked to Google, which is a good point on my opinion. Guest • Jul 2017 • 12 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Sometimes i found vids here which i dont find at youtube gigi_barly • Sep 2018 • 8 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Plenty of content not found on Youtube. More lax terms of service than Youtube. Guest • Dec 2019 Disagree Agree Dailymotion doesn't have the comments section on a video as Youtube and removed the livestream option.

DTube DTube is the first crypto-decentralized video platform, built on top of the Steemit and the IPFS... No censors, so you can listen to mrbeast swear all the time! Guest • Apr 2020 Disagree Agree Censor free, easy to use, and fun. Would recommend. Guest • Jul 2019 • 0 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree d.tube is youtube but without centralization and with crypto exchanged as views IIRC. It has the best interface of any youtube competitor and seems to have a business model that will payoff. lorendias • Mar 2018 • 5 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree Love it looks like youtube but its not.

OAKSIF0 • Feb 2018 • 7 agrees and 6 disagrees Disagree Agree D.Tube makes monetization easy and fair Guest • Feb 2018 • 1 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Sadly, because of the sharing model, the video size limit on DTube is 1GB, which is not really enough for good quality gameplays, so it's not a good alternative for gamers.

Invidious An alternative front-end to YouTube ## Official Onion Sites: * kgg2m7yk5aybusll.onion *... Just ried it a few times so the jury is still out Guest • Jun 2020 Disagree Agree Same content - ads and general slowness + one-click reddit comment section + one-click dark mode.
