Sounds like you're describing Nebula
Nebula does not bring an audience like YouTube can, so its not a solution yet.
I think YouTube should have a free tier with limited watch minutes of low quality, not an advertising tier.
@SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works @calculon@lemmy.ml They wouldn't make half as much money that way. And that would be okay, if it weren't because YouTube is a corporate piece of shit and needs to grow at infinite rate in order to exist.
Nebula sounds great until you use it... At least on Android, it buffers randomly for no reason, doesn't fallback onto audio-only if your screen is off, crashes, etc... it's just not very nice to use
