We should start our own video platform, with no rules other than hate speech prohibition and dark web-esque content removal. Never sell to Google. Never sell to Tencent. Never IPO. Just maintain the servers and hire enough technicians to maintain a content scanning algorithm. Keep it small and provide a cleaner experience by not fucking around with adblock users. Just have a platform that utilizes ads, don't punish adblockers, and with those metrics in hand, approach advertisers and charge less than youtube charges.
