    I have decided to ban Utube. And not use their platform. But I don't know where to go for alternatives. What do you guys and gals recommend? They do not support the 1st or the 2nd, and don't care about the users of the platform. I'm sick of their control. Help!

    I cut the cord when they started banning firearms channels, restricted content then demonititized those that were left. I occasional search "how to vids", can't save to watch later since I killed my account. I just Bookmark them and delete them when I done with the project. A lot of excellent firearm and related was lost, some probably never backed up others posting gun stuff for fun not money just said screw it and stopped doing at all. Ytub censored porn then made redtub to make money on it. Must be okay [sarc], it's being taught in school:

    All right guys, I got to cut you loose on this one. There is so much information on youtube that is helpful on everyday problems that they can't be written off. Woodwork, welding, mechanic work, cooking, painting, you name it and it's there. They're still gun videos on youtube, reloading ones too. There are other offerings for weapon videos that are better than you tube was anyway. I have listened to Jimmy Buffet for as long as I can remember, found out a few years back he's a big democrat. I still listen. If any of you came by my house I bet not a one of you would be walking. Nope you'd pull up in a vehicle of some type. I reckon everyone thinks the Big 3 in Detroit is a big second amendment supporter. Not a chance! They will ass kiss whoever they think will improve the bottom line. My point here is you really have no idea, on a daily basis, what most everybody we have to deal with supports and believes. If you really want to help keep our rights. Get out and vote. It's the only real weapon we have in our arsenal. Don't get me wrong, I'm not being critical of anybody here, you do what works for you. I just want to point out our present problems are much more complex than dropping youtube.

    I understand your point MauserLarry. But cancel culture works really well for the other side. And I decided long ago to vote with my wallet. I changed my search engines last year and only goggle I use is their maps occasionally. I only use Amazon for price checks. I feel at least a modest attempt on my part is something small I can do. I try to support locally-owned businesses, even if they don't share my views.. usually don't shop Walmart, but I did today... and I sometimes watch utube. I just get tired of hearing channels tell me they can't do this, or show me that, or even post a link to something they are showing. And on top of that they are demonitized, censored, deleted or even banned.

    It's time to act DAILY, when you only get the chance to vote once every 2, 4, or 6 years.

    Thanks for all the suggestions and keep them coming. I have been checking them out!
