I am resharing it to benefit the highest amount of people.

I wanted to list and ask for platforms that can substitute YouTube.

Here it's:

  • NASA+, Space and Astronomy Videos.
  • Vimeo, Professional Videos and Documentaries.
  • TED, Talks and presentations.
  • PeerTube, there is not a lot of videos, but some creators upload there.
  • ARTE, Euro documantries and analysis.
  • RedBull TV, Sports related videos.
  • RTE Player, Journalism.
  • BBC videos, diverse topics.
  • NFB Films, Canadian Films.

This would be better for the DeGoogle community, I don't believe any of these are terribly privacy friendly.

BBC's iPlayer is only available in the U.K. (or with VPN) and has a lot of tracking. Just one example.

We need a YouTube alternative badly

I appreciate the effort, but as far as I can see there is only one service that aims to be a YouTube alternative: PeerTube. Everything else specializes in a specific topic and/or doesn't allow user created content.
