Live service games are relatively new and among the most popular every year. You’re right traditional games aren’t going anywhere but neither are these style of games. And to insinuate they haven’t disrupted or changed the industry is silly.
They’re not new games yet they are in the top games every year which might say something.
It’s a chicken or the egg situation. However you make your money you need eyeballs and they’re currently not on PeerTube. Millions of people visit YouTube everyday. That’s a lot of chances for discovery. It’s a very small percentage of people willing to limit their exposure for the things you mentioned and without loads of content it’s hard to grow and truly be an alternative to YouTube.
That is a good thing but at the end of the day that makes someone money how? The platform has to work for everyone even the professional creators.
YouTube really isn’t anything without the content and I’m not sure how open source will solve that.
I’ve been using this with Firefox for a bit. I very much enjoy it. Took me a while to find something I liked for a new tab page since you can search in the URL bar it always felt redundant having a search engine specific page there.
