Who knew.... I never signed up or signed in, and I never thought to look at the SETTINGS button which lets you change content settings. Lo and behold, there is a checkmark (which was left unchecked) for "Show mature content" which was unbeknown to me and perhaps most people who visit LBRY for the first time. The video linked above does open one's eyes.  ::)   :-DD

I was considering maybe using LBRY as a secondary site for my channel, after Dave mentioned he uses it for EEVBlog. However,  my understanding is that LBRY will let you monetize but viewers have to pay to view, as there is no ad-supported monetization. While it may be insignificant to charge people even 1 penny, the fact that they need to pay somehow may be too much of a hassle for most people to bother. Perhaps if their site injects bit-mining code into your browser so that it mines some bitcoin while you are on their site, it will "pay" for the video views automatically that way?

Maybe LBRY will be forced as it grows to drop more "questionable" content from the site. However, having a completely open unfettered site does have some advantages for content creators. I guess we'll see what happens.  :popcorn:

By the way.... has anyone noticed that you can right click on any video and choose "Save video as..." which will save a stream.mp4 file to your computer. It's not the greatest quality but it's still pretty good. I know there are tools to download YouTube videos, but this option on LBRY makes it ridiculously simple! Not sure if I would like that as a content creator.

Honestly I approve of not restricting what content is allowed on your site. Add some visible content filters and you're fine.

Absolutely.

I see porn on LBRY as a positive thing, not a negative thing (and not for the reasons one would normally assume).

I just want to know why I wasn't informed earlier.    :rant:
