I have been a #NebulaTV subscriber for two years now, and I totally recommend it. A great deal given the quantity and quality of content ✨️✨️
I periodically reset my the cache and cookies for #YouTube and each time I do, I am astonished by how stupid the front page of that website is.
To be fair, there is a lot of fascinating and entertaining stuff on YouTube, and my normal experience using it is mostly fine, once it learns I don't want clickbait or thirst traps. But the default site is hot trash.
It's a good argument for a site like #NebulaTV, by the way, which I have happily supported for 3 years now.
One of the things I really like about #nebulaTV is how much Black and Queer content I see there compared to #YouTube . I'm guessing the lack of algorithm prevents the Black and Queer people from being pushed down either in the algo in general or my personal home feed. Anyway, go Nebula! Thanks for showing me videos I wouldn't have found on YouTube.
@trevorflowers Agree. I wish there was a “gift” link feature. Although, for a lot of the people I follow on Nebula, they post the same content on YouTube, but with a delay, possibly. Not all of course because some are #NebulaTV exclusives.

What a cool nerdy explanation video of Micro-electro-mechanical devices- #mems devices - in this case #gyroscope and #accelerometer in your phone. So cool.
In a past life, I worked in the commercialization office of a university, selling rights to our patents. A good chunk of them were MEMS devices - and it was always delightful to learn about these microscopic innovations.

I've just watched the new video from #FilmJoy: "A Love Letter to #Battlebots - Movies with Mikey" and I love it - garden-rake & all.
If you don't have #NebulaTV, I'd think it will be on YouTube in a few weeks

I still recommend #NebulaTV but absolutely be vocal and hold them to a higher standard. Just being "a better YouTube" isn't sufficient and won't withstand the pressure of platform "enshitification".
Fortunately Lindsay Ellis was able to use her privilege to negotiate a right to syndicate her own content hosted on Nebula. I hope this becomes available to all creators there. Then we can build our own discovery features instead of being trapped in a walled garden.
I've been sleeping on #NebulaTV originals, but that's stopping. There are some exceptionally produced and educational videos in that pool.
Anyone got any contacts with nebula?

Habe ein Abo von #NebulaTV abgeschlossen. Weiß noch nicht, ob es für ein Jahr reicht, aber die Inhalte sind gut bisher.
From the excellent @citybeautiful comes another super video essay:
The Lifesaving Tech Drivers Hate
I actually prefer the title of this video on #NebulaTV, "How We Can Make Streets Safer NOW (But Don't)," which makes it more clear that failing to provide safer streets for the people that use them is a continual choice of American cities and states.

@xerz @tilvids @notjustbikes PeerTube's mission is similar to Nebulas: Giving more control to content creators.
I wonder is some kind of collaboration could happen...
Are any of the #nebulatv people on Mastodon?
