From when I used to go on there for a couple yt people whose videos are also simultaneously on there, I noticed it wasn't the nicest of platforms. On a particular Canadian I used to watch, I would notice some people in the comments calling him an Indian ( Asian, not native ) n-word and a few other things I wasn't okay with.
I had also noticed a lot of kinda deep conspiracy type content in the default home video whatever menu thing ( like on yt ). Also some less than stellar, IMO, political stuff. There was a cool artist that I would occasionally we drawings from, though, but that was far and few in between the more alternative content I would see.
Needless to say, I kinda ditched the platform and am reminded I still need to delete my account if I can.
The alternative nature of the platform kinda kicked me away from it. Otherwise, it was an okay enough platform. Not a fan of the whole cryptocurrency like things you could get for watching videos on platform and then send it to creators you like, too. That felt wrong in many ways, but it is what it is.
