Yes, but barely, as long as the SEC lawsuit hangs overhead. If that were to turn out favorably, who knows.

lol this shit still trades??

I don't see there is something wrong with too much youtube content on LBRY. Back then even the community are tempted to want their favourite creators to be available on LBRY. And yes, building a "migrations" tool for the contents is essential, both for the users and the creators. I remember back then LBRY focused a lot that they reserve some grants to make that kind of application available.

I'm not entirely clear on what you're saying here. I think that Odysee does give some initial LBC so that people can publish content. It's trivially cheap to publish content to the LBRY blockchain, something like 0.00002 LBC or something which comes out to the outrageous price of $0.0000007 or something. Granted, as long as something costs more than $0.0000, it will scare users away. But if they let users withdraw this free crypto, then malicious actors will invariably try to game the system. It's just how the world is unfortunately.

As far as Odysee is concerned from a usability perspective, them or any other web3 competitor trying to overtake legacy big tech centralized media has to have a sync function or else their platform, I would say, is largely doomed to fail before it even starts. Odysee has that.

And until there's a sufficient audience and/or healthy monetization stream on Odysee, they are going to have to lean on the YouTube sync before they can get Odysee specific content. That's also just a function of society I believe.

I think Odysee's steps they've taken so far are remarkably good. Controversial opinion but I think most blockchain socials have a very unhealthy monetization system (for example, steemit/hive). And that building it correctly is both a lot of work and slow/expensive. If they continue in the direction they have been and organic growth continues, I think your problems will all get answered on their own through time.

But you should also take into account the fact that when creating your own content, the LBRY images are also blocked on the Odysee account, they also continue to be displayed on your total balance, but they are not available for withdrawal, this can be seen in the balance tab in the boosting content section (on initial publishes(Delete or edit past content to spend)).

And yes, in my opinion, too much content is a mirror of youtube channels, it is clear that the authors want to somehow protect their channels, but they wanted to see more unique content on the Odysee platform.

You can see how much any channel has in supports and you can see how much any video has in supports. However, these supports/stakes don't differentiate between LBC purchased by the content creator, supports staked by other users supporting their content and tips given to them by other users supporting their content.

Realistically, for the time being, Odysee is growing very fast but is still quite small. Users probably only get a small number of earns for the time being.

LBRY as a technology is 100% agnostic to content. That will always be a tool for anyone. Russians or whomever. For now, Odysee has mostly taken the high ground. If for any reason, they deviate, any other front-end competitor also boot strapped from the LBRY network could eat their lunch or people could just use the LBRY protocol itself.

Yes, if everything goes as it is currently going, then Russian users can simply be switched to their servers and localized from the external Internet, but for this their data centers must be created and ready to accept traffic, which I am more than sure no one took care of in advance.

Well, if it does happen, some are already calling March 11, I think it's still rumors no more, then no blockchains can be an alternative to getting any information from outside. But still I want to believe that the Russian government, which can only steal and destroy, will not achieve the result that it would like, in any case, there is not much time left to see all this

The creators will hardly feel the support if you do that way. To directly tips/supports the creators on their content page or channel page should be the way to go.

Anyway, I don't know the current LBRY foundation state regarding content creators' rewards, I don't know if they are still rewarding to those who sync their Youtube channel into LBRY. As of now, if you are want to support some creators, best to directly tip them(https://lbry.com/faq/tipping).

Don't know where and how to specifically find it but https://lbrynomics.com/ may give you some insights.

Personally, I believe the lbry protocol may give them a viable anti-censorship content, though, I don't about the future viability of it, nothing their government said they will only use russian based DNS, as in result, they may be completely limited from the outside internet world(CMIIW).

I don't know if odysee can become a full-fledged replacement for a platform like facebook, taking into account the fact that the platform sometimes slows down very much when viewing video content, imho still needs a lot of work. By the way, Facebook blocking, I tried to go in now, there are no problems, it seems to me a lot depends on the provider, although blocking is also a time-consuming process, in any case, blocking social networks and apparently youtube in Russia will lead to the development of alternative platforms.

If LBRY is rewarding content creators, then by buying LBRY we essentially support those content creators, right? It seems that market is not really liquid tho.
Where can we see how much some of the creators get rewarded?

Any comments on recent censorship towards Russia? Facebook and BBC are now unavailable in Russia (it's probably a blessing tho), but people might want to seek for the alternatives. Is Odysee/LBRY viable alternative service for Russians?

You better check your fact!

Rewards are still being given to the users who actively use LBRY or Odysee. You can refer to this: https://lbry.com/faq/rewards and Odysee also still shows its reward page. Best if you verify it yourself by using the platforms.

LBRY is still developing, rewards are one of few ways that will make the platform is widely known and used, I don't see them stopping the reward scheme in the meantime.

What are you guys rattling about? Most of u are 3 yo mites hanging around the corner for no reason but to mess up someones day. U are grinches awkwardly spaced by the evolution or god between the opening valve of the civilization and the exhaust pipe precariously placed between the future and the past. I do not think rewards are even enabled. No one gives away free LBRY on that platform, that is for sure.

At the last minute, the SEC wants to pause the LBRY court case for another 8 weeks to collect more "evidence".
The case has already been open for 196 weeks!

SEC requested extensions when they brought the lawsuit

I don't believe. You will probably die by natural cause before that happens.

I'll hold LBC to 10 $. Do you think it's possible? ha-ha

Its important to note that LBRY were singled out among hundreds of tokens with similar, and even identical, tokenomics because they won't censor content along with the rest of the tech oligarchy.

Should LBRY resolve any current issue with the SEC, there are at least a few more federal agencies that will step in with a new suit from a new angle. Then the UK and EU agencies can step up and file new ones.

Supporting LBRY is 100% supporting a principle, not making a profit.

Those in power don't need to win these suits, they just have to make it too costly to continue operations. That is the whole purpose of "Lawfare": win by financial attrition.
