Vimeo

Discover amazing videos from the world’s best creators, and upload your own—all on your iPhone and iPad—with Vimeo for iOS. .

• 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. arglborps • May 2017 • 21 agrees and 10 disagrees Disagree   Agree
• Different business model entirely, not enough of the same content. zane • Nov 2017 • 14 agrees and 6 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. Guest • Oct 2018 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 • Yesterday Disagree   Agree
• It's not free, there are no playlists, and the interface is not very userfriendly Guest • Aug 2017 • 15 agrees and 15 disagrees Disagree   Agree

For an example of a federated service already in use, look no further than Email. swedneck • Jul 2018 • 3 agrees and 0 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 • 24 agrees and 8 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 • 6 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree   Agree

• Love it looks like youtube but its not. And I didn't know it was completly decentralized and open source! What a bonus! OAKSIF0 • Feb 2018 • 3 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 • 2 agrees and 0 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. Guest • May 2018 • 0 agrees and 5 disagrees Disagree   Agree
