Alternatives to Big Tech

BitChute - Bitchute is a UK based P2P (Torrent front-end) alternative to YouTube video sharing, created in 2017. A lot of conservative/right folks cross-post to BitChute, in case they are blocked by the crypto-fascists at Google/YouTube. This insurance worked well for a few that were banned or demonetized for reasons unknown or imagined.
Brighteon - Real.Video became Brighteon.com an alternative YouTube. Because people use them to host historically factual but offensive things (like the Christchurch shooting video), they were threatened with de-platforming, so are working on alternatives to reduce that in the future. But for now, they often cave to through censors.
Diaspora - Self-hosted Social Network founded in 2010 (funded via crowd funding / a Kickstarter campaign) in response to Facebook user spying. Diaspora is Greek for scattered (as in dispersed population), which fits their distributed model of self hosting.
Full30 - YouTube for Gunners (since Google/YouTube-Fascists don't believe in 2A or civil liberties). Their contact and information is on a footer that you can't click on because it keeps auto-loading more content and moving it away when you try to click it.
Gab - Gab is a free-speech alternative to Twitter, launched in 2016. Social networks are the sum of it's participants. Gab has lots of disenfranchized -- so some great, some quality drops. Because Apple opposes Free Speech there's no iOS App, though you can use their web interface at gab.com.
Global Massacres/Katyr-Yurt Bombing - 🇷🇺 Katyr-Yurt, Russia: Russian forces bombed the village and a refugee convoy under white flags killing up to 363 people, and injuring at least that many more people. Of course the European Court ruled it was a war crime, then did nothing about it.
LBRY - LBRY is a secure content sharing and publishing platform (using blockchain) that is decentralized and owned by its users. That means it should get around most oppressive restrictions on content. It's also a micropayment system where you can buy/share content and charge for information/data. It's being used partly as an alternative YouTube.
Mastadon - Self-hosted Social Network (Twitter/Tumblr) started in 2016 to combat Facebook or Tumblr de-platforming/censorship.
MeWe - When Zuckerberg called privacy a “social norm of the past” (circa 2012), Mark Weinstein created MeWe: a privacy-centric alternative to Facebook. There are a fair amount of people looking for Social Media that doesn't require you buy into Zuckerberg's crypto-fascism.
Parler - Pronounced “par-lay” (not parlor) was set up in 2018 as another free speech alternative to Twitter. As Twitter became a more fascist collective, Parler started growing massively. Then Twitter banned Trump and Conservatives Digital Kristallnacht, under the false premise of "insurrection", and in a coordinated attack, tried to destroy Parler as well.
Rumble - Online video platform and cloud services business. Rumble is YouTube with competent executives; the best alternative to YouTube out there. They also host Truth Social and other infrastructure that doesn't trust fascist left organizations like Amazons AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft's Azure (ordered by intolerance).
Telegram - This started in 2013 as a Facebook free version of WhatsApp, for those who trust some Russian guy making his own security protocols more than Zuckerberg. But it's evolved into more a micro-blogging service than just point-to-point communications (broadcast channels, group chats, bots, etc). With 200M users (2019) it has a following.

Conclusion[edit | edit source]

I offer no warranty or testimony to any of them. The problem seems to be the number of folks that have moved has still been small and some are quite caustic -- which taints the audience pool. Most haven't achieved a real critical mass, through alternatives to YouTube is a lot easier to do than an alternative to Facebook/Twitter because of the dependence on the social graph (millions of users). So while I'm hoping that one gets that critical mass, we just aren't really there yet, and we won't be until I could tell my Mom or friends what my channel/page is, and expect them not to scoff or have to get a custom App just to access my information.
