I remember getting phone calls from AOL for creating "illegal" chat rooms meant to share data/photos/etc. but they couldn't keep up so they kept banning me and closing my accounts. And yet...

Weird how things eventually work out 🤷‍♀️

"This looks amazing! However if this gets big Google will shut you down and copy any useful features back into YouTube.

Instead, why not scrape all the videos (those with the right licenses of course) and put them on #PeerTube?"
