Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he’s essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?
He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he’d ever consider it?

He can host his own instance, then you’re free to block it.

More so for being/cosplaying (same thing) as a fucking nazi https://www.vox.com/culture/2017/2/17/14613234/pewdiepie-nazi-satire-alt-right

“Kjellberg tacitly compares himself to Hitler, gives a Nazi salute, and shows a series of clips of Nazi imagery, including a crowd of Nazis saluting, Nazi soldiers marching, and footage of Hitler Youth.”
Yeah, if you don’t see “nazi” after that, that’s on you I think.

Yeah, because there hasn’t been anything since then, right?

Or does the counter automatically get reset every time there’s another apology video? There have been so many, after all.
The lengths some of you all go to in order to defend a racist, Nazi-cosplaying edgelord who makes fun of people with disabilities is a little insane.

Its more than that, if you read this thread you would know
You seem to be holding onto a lot of hate for something a very different guy did 10+ years ago. He’s gotten married, had a kid and moved his family to Japan since his young edgy days.
He absolutely deserved criticism for the stupid shit he was doing when his channel was exploding, but I think holding onto that level of vitriol for this long isn’t healthy.
People are allowed to grow and change. Im sure you said or did some incredibly stupid shit in your teenage and young adult years. I know I fucking did. If we never allow people to grow and change for the better then we are permanently locking each person to their lowest point and holding them there forever. I think that is an incredible robotic and inhuman way to approach the human condition.
Yeah his fans are little assholes too.
Not liking someone is not a good reason to root against decentralized platforms, IMO. The entire point of decentralization is that nobody gets to control the experience and who is/isn’t allowed to participate.
