Hi there! This is a video that I made that I’m hoping can act as a beginner friendly entry level point to the world of self hosting and running a homelab. Just thought I’d share in case anyone is interested, and I hope it can be a resource to share with noobies. I don’t claim to be an expert at all so I’d also love some feedback. Thanks!

    I just imagine a federated, YouTube-like platform. Except better in literally every single way. You are a member of your local community instance, and thereby connected with every other federated instance throughout the world.

      As an in-between measure, may I suggest Nebula? Creators get 50% of the earnings, it’s assigned by view time. Price is significantly cheaper than Netflix or YouTube Premium. Yes, most of the creators are on YouTube too, but a lot of them do bonus content on Nebula + there’s no ads + they get more money. If you use an ad blocker on YouTube, the creator gets nothing.

      You can get a discount for your first year by using your favourite small-medium size creator’s marketing link (which gives them a bit of money). If you don’t have one, may I suggest Patrick H Willems? He has cool video essays on cinema. You could of course use a bigger creator’s link too, but I figure I’d rather pump some smaller creator’s numbers.
