Its federated network allows users to share content across different instances, enhancing accessibility and redundancy. Odysee offers decentralized video hosting that ensures content ownership and freedom of expression through secure uploads. Vimeo provides high-quality video hosting with privacy controls and customizable players, supporting adaptive streaming for businesses and creators. BitChute emphasizes free speech and independence from major corporations through its peer-to-peer platform and reliable content management. Rumble enables users to distribute content across various platforms with minimal buffering, though some find the interface less intuitive than competitors. DTube facilitates easy video sharing with social media integration while maintaining control over distributed content through its decentralized network.

    This one is not bad and not so bloated as most other alternatives. However, it seems to be not developed anymore. The latest release was 2017 and that is also the year the last commit was made in its Github repository. https://github.com/cumulusclips/cumulusclips
