Honestly though there's something to be said for an up and coming platform. I mean I just uploaded some stupid video of Bill Gates and it is on the way to 2k views on NodeTube right now, I think there is a first-adopters bonus to being the first to adopt a new platform. And I have some good plans for monetization as well, really the big issue is breaking the monopoly YouTube has. Maybe once that happens they'll actually not treat their creators like crap which would be a win in and of itself.


I just uploaded porn. How will it be handled?


Did you see the comment I left? Porn is actually against the TOS, and this instance itself is going to be SFW only by the end of the night, just a heads up.


I didn't.

Thanks for the reply.


I don't mind if someone forks NodeTube and has a more permissive TOS but for this main node I want it to be pretty family friendly yknow just because it's really a proof of concept for the devs of the world at the moment a bit more than a filesharing site. And hey no problem.
