    I find it infuriating that the “free market” doesn’t let me bid on an empty ad slot on my own videos and instead makes me pay a flat rate monthly fee.

      That’s what people are doing with sponsored segments.

      My gut is that if Peertube had an ad marketplace that content providers would flock to it. But ODYSEE already failed at monetization. And then you’d have to have some kind of guardrails in place to keep people from hosting pirated* movies for $$$.

        No, I mean videos I’m watching. Let me pay the fraction of a cent myself.
