@Firelion @Jim No it's not. It's a scam. Use a PeerTube instance.

@Firelion @Jim Blacklists are part of the LBRY blockchain and it's all controlled by the LBRY corp. They can censor your account and the censor is put on the blockchain (technically you could make a client that ignores the blacklists but still).
Also "blockchain" doesn't mean that it's decentralized. A blockchain CAN be decentralized but that's not always the case. The only truly decentralized blockchain I know of is the Monero blockchain because they actually have thorough documentation on setting up a node.

Not only the documentation, but also the ease of setting up a node, and the very low bar of entry.
But with the exception of Monero, ASSociating "blockchain" with "decentralized" is really just a meme.
@applejack @Firelion @Jim They're using it to censor other shit though. And it's not like the couldn't use a form of community based moderation.
