idk why bitchute also didn't integrate LN on their platform...

For all those podcasters and video creators, I would recommend to use:

adding a simple LN address in the video description any viewer could pay directly with just 1 click using Alby browser extension. Must be in the format: ⚡alias @domain.com
or using a LNbits streamer copilot, with more funny features, as I described in this guide

I'll be travelling with my Bitcoin Bike.

Make your own LN video channels for that. Example: https://lightning.video/darthcoin

I've been paying attention to all these platforms. Lightning.video doesn't actually feel the best one.

Why? You can even stream live on LN video. You can even embed your videos with paywall anywhere you like. You do not need to bring your audience only to the same site.

It just started, yes, is a long way to improve it. But you have also an easy way to integrate it with your own Shockwallet directly.

Only by using these new platforms and report back to developers you can make them better. Things are not getting suddenly done. Takes time and usage.

I agree and I know it. My first motive with my videos will be to reach more and more audience. The secondary reason will be to partially fund the journey.

Right now, I'm just looking at all the options, I'll start next year so, I think I still have quite some time to ponder over the options.

For more audience, YouTube is certainly the best and because, I've just come across that I can use LN button there, my view towards releasing videos exclusively on LN platforms is little shifted.

I aim to travel for spreading education about Bitcoin and LN and I think it'd be better if I can reach more audience.

Go to whatever YT channel or video that have a LN address in description. Alby extension will became blue and you could send sats with just 1 click to the creator. And YT have nothing to do with this, they do not get any cut or block it.
