      100% agree, and I see no easy way to get over that. Maybe a good starting point could be to also post the video on an alternative platform and mention that alternative platform to the YT audience, encouraging them to test it out?

        As a content consumer … none of those “alternatives” are alternatives to youtube.

        They all immediately take you to a “how to buy hosting on our platform, and why our platform is good for hosting” pages. Rather than just taking you to the hosted content. So as a consumer, I now need to work out how to consume the content there. And … I ain’t gonna bother.

        youtube.com the content is right there.

        Youtube is a platform for consumers, that creators have to work for.
