Technology

I mirror my stuff from youtube over there and I do not fall into these categories. To be fair, I have the tiniest of audiences anyway, so... doesn't really matter either way.

Haven't checked in on Odyssee for a while though. Not sure if the auto mirror thing still works.

Far right content is more common than on YouTube because of the guidelines, but in my experience the largest parts are crypto, privacy and similar, also a decent amount is gaming (at least that’s what I upload)

Well I never happened to see anything related to these topics on Odysee. I mostly used to follow tech stuff as my other hobbies like cars and basketball aren’t really present on the platform.

There may be content generators on there you can label that way, but that doesn't make the platform neo-nazi.

You take all of the stuff excluded from a big platform and put it on a small platform, and it'll swamp every other topic out. If as a platform runner you feel that you should not censor others, then this can happen.

On the flip side, there's nothing stopping other with less controversial opinions to post there as well. Nobody is going to be told their channel about supercars isnt racist enough, or their politics channel is too-left communist.

You sometimes see that stuff on Odysee because they don't censor it, unless it promotes violence or hatred to individuals. They do have community guidelines after all, since they can't legally host... illegal content. In that sense there is censorship because they can't not censor things to some extent; but the free speech and large lack of censorship is their goal regardless. As an Odysee user for over 2 years, this is the minority of content on the platform. Where you do see that content that breaks the rules... that's what the report button is for.

Pretty much, unfortunately. And the people who run Odysee have repeatedly, time and time again, defended Nazis, white supremacists, far-right conspiracies, videos calling for genocide, etc.

Although in fairness to my knowledge they haven't done what Musk has done for example and said "free speech! [Unless you disagree with dear leader, then it's an account ban]"

It isn't exclusively a Neo-Nazi platform, but it is a free-speech absolutist platform, so they have absolutely no problem platforming Nazis.

It's basically the 4chan of tube sites. All are welcome, but if you aren't a fascist you probably won't fit in.

They officially announced they were switching to the Arweave protocol in a post a little under a month ago, but I'm not sure if it's happened yet; haven't looked further into it yet, and it was revealed by other sources a little while prior to that.

Good luck to them nevertheless, I hope they succeed.

Personally, I hope the platform that welcomes Nazis crashes and burns.

If anyone does want to support them, even by a small amount, and don't have much money, I personally recommend subscribing for a month or two to the Premium+ subsciption, which is only $2.99/month. It's all I can afford atm personally, so that's what I'm going to be doing. They deserve support just for this action alone.
