Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he’s essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?
He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he’d ever consider it?
he was doing it for clout, he came back doing vlogs on youtube like last year, hes probably missing all that money when he was still big, after retiring because he was found to support nazis. one of his older comments really irked people, his support of youtube aggressive ads last decade too.
he fled to japan to avoid the criticism in the us, think about that, its a classic tactic people in the us avoid controversies do.
around the same a bunch other influencers got all kinds of wierd cringey stuff outed about them.
Wasn’t that nazi stuff debunked?
I don’t see how switching country helps to run away from the internet.
Yeah, the guy never lived in the U.S. I don’t think.
asia doesnt care as much as the west about drama, hence he would be relatively unknown there.
You’re reading into this too much imo
