Very excited to announce that our next #YouTube video is going to be about everyone's favourite topic: #TRAINS 🚆 🚅
The whole episode comes out next week, but here's a little teaser already: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VbBaQT0QtHI
YouTubeIs Taking The Train Worth It?

@hpod16 Trains are awesome. But YouTube is NOT. Please use European platforms.

hey there! I understand wanting to support European alternatives, but let's be realistic too. The goal here is also to reach people. YouTube has billions of users, European alternatives currently do not. We have to strike a balance with communication objectives and digital sovereignty. And the EU does give grants and funding to European alternatives, so there is balance.
One day it may be possible to switch to Peertube, but currently, it simply isn't worth the investment. sorry

@hpod16 Dear Hannah. Thanks for taking your time to answer and to voice your opinion. I understand your points but don't agree. If the EU institutions don't abandon the undemocratic Big Tech - who should?
Have a wonderful day💚

@Klimahandling @hpod16 also so-called European alternatives are in most cases hostile to people with disabilities. If you don't know what accessibility is, please google for it or ask me, I'm more than happy to answer any question. As a blind guy, I care only about #Accessibility because I literally cannot live and work without it. Thanks for reading.
