A hardened pick. Worth the effort once you have chosen to shrink your footprint on purpose. Enough for most people. Threat levels
Our take
A decentralized video platform tied to blockchain infrastructure, pitched as a censorship-resistant alternative to the mainstream sites. Set expectations honestly: the audience is small, the experience is rougher than the incumbents, and the crypto integration shapes the whole platform. Worth a look if you specifically want blockchain-based, hard-to-deplatform video; not a practical day-to-day replacement for a major streaming service.
