I know Nebula is not exactly open source, but it is pitched as a creator-controlled (or, at least a creator-centric) platform.

YouTube is my main platform of media consumption, and I would prefer to find other avenues that are not quite as monolithic.

Has anyone here tried Nebula? Is it worth it, and is there anything sketchy about it I should be aware of?

      I actually got an email from Nebula about how that’s been discontinued

      Hello,

      As of January 1, 2024, access to Nebula is no longer provided by Curiosity Stream. We will continue to provide complimentary Nebula access for the remainder of your current subscription period, but future renewals of your Curiosity Stream subscription will not include access to Nebula. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

      If you would like to continue accessing Nebula and supporting your favorite creators, you can switch to a direct Nebula subscription here for a discounted rate of $30 per year.

      And I believe before like, 2021 it wasn’t available as a bundle but that could be incorrect

        They’ve always been separate services, but up until about a year ago you could either get Nebula by itself, or bundled with CuriosityStream. Then theybwent their separate ways, around the same time that CuriosityStream more than doubled its yearly subscription price

        used to watch Issac Arthur religiously, guess the bundle has just been seared into my brain and they’re not doing it any more.
