This is exactly why I could never justify making a serious investment in YouTube, and also why I have stopped spending any time or resources on Twitter too.
It always felt like an impossible gamble. It’s like building a house in a hurricane zone that you KNOW cannot survive a hurricane, and that there is no way to insure. Life might be great, but eventually, and inevitably, a hurricane WILL come and you are just going to lose it all.
It is literally slavery if something you invested years of your life and tens of thousands of hours into can be taken from you by someone else arbitrarily, unilaterally, without recourse, without difficulty, and without even the mildest of concern from the person who can basically destroy your social existence and livelihood.
Everything is ultimately worthless if we don’t have freedom.

quoting note1u2q…yplnSimply Bitcoin was banned on YT today, I always knew the day would come and have been mentally preparing myself for years.
I can’t wait for the day that you can livestream to the masses via decentralized protocols rather than centralized platforms.
I’ve put in so many hours into not only making content but also making sure we follow the “community guidelines” on YouTube and we were still banned.
I’m bullish on the future of Nostr and I will continue to advocate for it until it reaches a critical mass where you don’t have to rely on centralized platforms in order to garner sufficient amount of views to run a media company.
Bitcoin or slavery.
Nostr or slavery.
