YouTube's "new" policy will effectively end most all firearm channels.

I read they are going to remove the dislike button. All one need do is look at the YouTube WhiteHouse channel like to dislike ratio on every single video for the reason why.

It's pretty sad to see, but fortunately general firearm content is probably safe (for now) especially if produced by InRange, Paul Harrell, Bloke On the Range, C&Arsenal, etc. since they're pretty careful to follow YouTube rules. Disassembly and cleaning vids seem safe for now which is helpful for us weirdos who like old semiautos!

The dudes in tight bedazzled shirts constantly shilling for the NRA can go, they don't bring much to the table other than mindless entertainment.

2 + 2 = 5.

Well, then, Eff Youtube for this content. What are the alternatives?

 

[2Wheels4Ever]

Full30.com is a decent alternative. Lots of the big guys post over there.

 

[Aero Denezol]

Damn. That's pretty much half of everything I watch is YouTube gun and gun product videos.

 

[Old Noob]

I have been watching some on gunstreamer, gab.tv, rumble, odysee, etc... .

Many more platforms to watch now a days.
Watch them and stop supporting Google!

Hickok45, GarandThumb, Mike Glover, and many other highly informative channels come to mind that will have to completely "reinvent" themselves to deliver content on YouTube.

And while I am not a fan of the overly "tactical" channels (anything T-Rex Arms I can't stand, even though I love their no-compromise stance on the Second Amendment), I see no reason why they should go.

Many people enjoy their content and derive valuable information; at the end of the day, that is clearly what YouTube is scared of. It is amazing that YouTube is so dedicated to being an extension of a certain political party's agenda, that they are willing to sacrifice millions of viewers/subscribers/ad revenue!

I must say, I applaud them for their commitment!

P.S. Let's be honest though , firearms related content of any variety will be banned from YouTube within the next 5 years.

Google is doing great things to help the people who are trying to compete with them. The more they censor, the more they help those like Rumble who are trying to compete.

Yep, control the narrative and control the minds of the sheeple....

I'm not as impressed with Gunstreamer or Full30. Too many youtube channels simply migrated their 5 to 7 year-old videos to those platforms with no new content since. IMO they need to step it up. Reviews are outdated. Searches generate very limited or no results.

Odysee seems to have some more recent gun content. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of super short videos that provide no information...basically a 9 to 15 second moving picture which could hardly be called content.

I guess I won't be spending much time on YouTube anymore. They can keep it and shove it.

They didn't remove the button, the dislikes are only viewable to the content creator not the audience.

 

[PORSCHE928S4]

Does this site have the ability to support videos ? Could we have our own video section ?

They need to go to "rumble"..
