Lbry.tv is not a seamless experience, but it's a startup, it's doing it's best, and it's trying to take on YouTube. It doesn't censor ANY opinion. We need this platform to exist and thrive because Silicon Valley is definitely gonna come for it.

Exactly this point. YouTube is to control people

Yeah good points

The biggest thing free speech needs is a business model that doesn't rely on ads.

Lbry doesn't have ads though right? And they pay crypto which you can convert into USD? And then they fund out of pocket rely on donations?

Advertisers will go wherever the clicks lead them my friend. Trust me. Remember how youtube used to be in its golden days? All the alternative information we got from all those people is gone. The data that was on the internet between 2002-2020 has been filtered by tech giants. It used to be so easy to find videos about lizard people, hollow earth, 9/11, aliens, "conspiracies," black ops, illuminati, bilderberg, CFR globalist shit. All kinds of fun stuff. DId I leave any out? They took it from us because they know best. You aren't even allowed to evaluate things for yourself anymore......

Is it short for library?

They should've gone with the full word in the url. After a certain point it will hinder their growth to not have it.
