Which Youtube alternative do you prefer to use and why? I've found PeerTube, Odysee, and Rumble. Thoughts on any of these?

I created an Odyssey account and started blocking all of the alt-right bullshit. I assumed that at some point I would be left with a fairly decent signal to noise ratio.

There's not enough redeeming content on Odyssey to make it worth it. By the time you eliminate all the wackadoos, racists, preppers (not that I dislike preppers, but it's a one and done thing)*, and scam artists there's like three or four people actually generating interesting content, and I suspect two of those are just people copying other people's YouTube channels trying to make some crypto coin off of them.
