Watched Louis Rossman today, and he’s part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more.

adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it’s an app in the Lemmy spirit

(it’s got a paid model similar to winrar, you don’t have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)

    It’s not enough to make work around for YouTube. We need a new YouTube.

      True, but with the ability to combine all competitors in a single feed a significant hurdle has been removed

      There are several "new YouTube"s. The problem is getting people to transition to them. And this is intended to do exactly that.

      that’s literally the whole point of this?

      the point of this is a new youtube is unlikely to take off because people can’t start using it without missing all their regular content.

      this means you can keep all your regular content and add new sources, with the same creators, which means they can start to move to new platforms and take their followers. that’s how we’ll replace youtube.
