Pepperbox is such a weird choice for Ian that I have to imagine there was some fuckery going on to get him to join. (outside his own app dying.) Pepperbox's entire lineup is the Brandon Herrera Clique and now Ian joins?

Pepperbox has the upside of having a built-in audience of younger, more engaged people with notoriously poor financial management skills. AKA, the ideal userbase for a paid video service, AKA the San Antonio Frat Pack fanbase. That's more than anyone in History of Guns and War did, and the marketing for Pepperbox ("watch everything uncensored! Here's exclusive content for yout!") is much more high-energy and focused on viewers than creators. Of all those youtube alternatives, this one might actually last longer than two years.

It’s not so much the alternatives aren’t working, he just won’t focus on making content for some of the more viable alternatives like Rumble and Odysee.

Ian could at least make some simple videos with little editing answering more viewer questions or giving insight on his latest research and post it there.

Looking at how much he's been posting to his diving channel, I would wager that Ian has been burning out on gun content for a bit and has been trying to diversity what he does in order to not fully burn out. The guy really should bite the bullet and hire an editor. Either way, asking him to release more gun content, what with the publishing business and the side channel, is probably a losing proposition right now.

I've got to agree that the you're looking to diversify from YouTube the obviously correct answer is Rumble/Odysee as opposed to a series of bespoke platforms that clearly aren't going anywhere because the area they cover is too small.

If any gun person could get on Nebula I think it would be Ian, and that platform seems to actually be profitable - although I think it's currently completing it's transformation into totally becoming a bluesky-esque anti-Trump bunker.
 
Hello fellow kiwis.

On the topic of YouTube and their increasing censorship, I'm here to offer a backup of Paul Harrell's videos from his main channel and an older smaller channel he had a decade prior. There might be some duplicates in the archive due to the software that I used to pull the videos may have downloaded the same videos a few times. I ask that for anyone interested to grab this archive and put it on torrent so Paul's videos are not off the internet.

Good day.

Paul Harrell archive.

I'm not gloating over or celebrating Youtube's deathgrip monopoly but this "We're now on (Youtube competitor that will never take off)!" announcement from various creators I enjoy is getting tiresome.

I'm not very smart but I suggested to Othias that the perfect solution to the "YouTube fucking hates us and wants us to fuck off from their platform and die" problem is very simple, it can be broken down into a single letter, X.

Elon Musk's X dot com is literally the perfect website for a new kind of firearms content community
-At minimum hundreds of millions of users
-Monetization options, tips and subscriptions in addition to ad revenue
-Platform won't die within 2 years
-The gun community at large aligns with Elon's vaguely Chud coded beliefs and thus won't be fucked with much
-Speaking of content moderation, There are more Neo-Nazis, Wignats, rayciss chuddy buddies and similar ideologues waging a never ending cyberjihad against jews, women, minorities, liberals and trannies. A few guys ripping off bursts with FRT's aren't going to catch the ire of the X moderation staff anymore than the aforementioned Chud hivemind does.
-Seriously, xAI's Grok WILL generate explicit adult holocaust survivor Anne Frank erotica if you ask it to Check for yourself if you don't believe me guns won't be any problem.
-I don't know how this would work (as in who would formally own and operate it) but someone could set up a "The Firearms Network" (or similar) account (maybe pony up the money for the Gold Checkmark? I think it's beneficial for reach) and create he world's greatest gunslop account. Instead of posting the same few hundred images and stolen content it could serve to repost new content from creator accounts.


It would also piss of Karl a lot and the other spiteful mutant hangers on in the community.
 
X might make sense for a new creator or someone showcasing gray-area content, but I doubt the 100,000 boomers who watch ian and othais’s bland videos are going to start paying for it on x when they can just watch a dozen other fudds review the same old guns on youtube — the free platform they already use. Now that ian’s a pepperback, I look forward to him joining the Leviathan Tribe and running scam giveaways with Fanofthem. Since pepperbox creators usually have multiple slop channels, it’d be great if Ian put his scuba diving show there too, so I could watch it after Diversity Hires and before Say Hi to Eli.
 
X just isn't geared for long format. Its discovery and subscription method is also a mess to navigate. Their monetization policy is brutal. We wouldn't qualify if 100% of our YT views came over.
 
X is great for snippets as Big O is already doing, but even whoever is there is posting to Instagram, TikTok and YouTube as it is. Rumble is a solid option but hard to drive traffic to if it's just the same exact stuff found on YouTube.
I don't know what I can suggest for the infotainment gun channels like ForgottenWeapons or C&Rsenal, since the former rushes to subscription-based notYouTube sites to post the same exact material people get for free and the latter has a filming setup consisting of an oily frying pan over an open flame but minor update videos or even B-roll footage, bloopers or fucking around being posted on the alternative channel will get people watching. You need something that makes that segment of the fanbase feel special. "Oh but I can't because-" and that's why those ventures will not work.

I think when it comes to content such as Ian's it makes much more sense to have it on a platform with other "genres" of content. Especially since his content is longer form and infotainment. Pretty much lends itself to ending up as background noise for some people. The Full30 thing was the same way, maybe if I'm literally disassembling that specific gun I'd look up Ian on these weird alternatives or whatever. Certainly I can't imagine people venturing over there just to throw something on in the background. Not to fault him for trying to break away from YouTube, it's just retarded to venture away from the more popular alternatives.

I think if it just had more "not found on YT" content that was actually good it'd start to drag people over. I find myself on Rumble/Odysee every time I try to load up a YouTube video and it's age restricted or what have you and it asks me to sign in. Sorry JudenTube, I'm not signing in just because someone said a slur or something. If that specific video or creator doesn't exist on Rumble/Odysee then I just don't watch it, as I literally can't.

I'm enjoying Tim Sundles' disrespect towards the law arc
in the latest video. in reference to illegal elk hunting:

Commenter: "That's illegal!"
Tim: "Yes it is, I don't give a shit."

What he was doing is filling his ex-wife's, his son's and daughter's Elk tags. It is illegal for sure, but I really don't see the problem with it beyond that. no extra elk were culled in reality.

Hog hunting rules should be the standard for everything. Any weapon, at any time of day, with any support equipment from NVGs to helicopters.

The only hunting law that makes sense is tags. Everything else is just fudd micro-managing.
