While I hate Google, this seems like one of those much ados over nothing. They specifically mention 'sex, gender, or sexual orientation', which to most reasonable people would cover gender identity.

You still think things are run by reasonable people?!

No, but I think most of the people on Lemmy should know better than that.

Looks at Hexbear, .ml, and to some extent Blahaj

Oh, who am I kidding.

youtube has enshittified for a while, they went downhill as soon as they announced that they no longer backed election denial reports. then all the right wing, anti-woke videos started popping up all over the place, plus the one that try to seem like its both sides videos too.

allowing people like beast, and others to dominate the front, was asking for trouble.

Everyone should check out PeerTube sometime, the UX has improved a lot and there's a decent amount of content too. I recommend installing the PeerTube Companion app. It shows a popup on YouTube if you've clicked on a video that is also available on PeerTube.

How is discoverability in PeerTube? That was the sticking point for me with PeerTube as with Mastodon last time I looked. It was not easy to discover what's out there.

Still not that great, I rely on the companion to redirect me to channels through YouTube.

Why even bother with a hate speech policy? Oh, right, money.

strange, they have allowed it ont he channel for quite a while, alot of the videos were mostly directed at transpeople in the form of anti-woke videos. like that channel where it had 20 magats arguing vs 1 "liberal".

right wing drives viewers to grifters, and those have ads which benefits youtube.

Also right wingers are dumb as hell and don’t use adblock.
