YouTube keeps breaking features and paywalling basics (comments, lyrics, background audio). Every week, something new. Odysee's response? "Fine. We'll make it so you can watch YouTube videos here instead." It's a power move, but it's also a statement: platforms shouldn't hold content hostage. If the video exists, and someone wants to watch it without dark patterns, let them. This is what competition used to look like before monopolies normalized themselves. One platform says "pay us to see comments." We say "we'll give you a better experience for free." The open web isn't dead. It's just been on life support. Maybe this is the defibrillator.
