Enjoying this #Reddit thread where they pontificate about how online video needs competition, but it costs too much to do it.

I've been running tilvids.com for almost four years now on mostly community donations. The problem isn't the cost, it's the fact that every creator thinks they're the next Mr. Beast and just one video away from being a millionaire, and viewers are complacent.

We could all easily collectively decide to change this at any time.

mamus,

@tilvids sounds like there should be donation buttons below videos

@mamus Some PeerTube creators do have a donate button! That said, the donate button doesn't directly donate, it takes you to the page of their choice, so not necessarily frictionless.
