Hello,

tbh, i hate youtube and its right wing algorithm with the fullest of my heart. I know there are probably many great trans / queer / feminist youtube channels, but i even hate visiting the startpage or looking at the sidebar.

(And yes, i know it can be disabled, but stil…)

tldr: does any of you have great peertube channels? with kind of regular content?

    Nebula is a good alternative to YouTube for established channel, and has no weird algorithm and evil people. If you can afford the subscription (3$/month, 30/year) I highly recommend it.

    Now, on Peertube, unfortunately I don’t know any English queer channels, but I’ll look around and report back here if I do - and will check the comments here :) (I’ll also post a separate comment for French channels with the language set as French so that it doesn’t flood the comments for people who have disabled French content in their settings)

    I’ve honestly had pretty decent luck with TikTok. My fyp is almost exclusively neurodivergent creators, dogs, trans/nonbinary folks, and very leftist stand-up.

      I recently / reluctantly created a tiktok account to follow trans / lgbtq creators and news stories.

      But I know that their algorithm is also not perfect and some people have said that it sends them right leaning content, because “outrage” = “engagement” and “engagement” = “$$$”

      I stay away from the “for you” page and just manually seek out the content I want to see.
