Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Odysee would be a *perfect* fit for the Nostr protocol?

Hear me out.

Odysee already leans heavily into:

Crypto-native infrastructure

Creator monetization and boosts

Decentralization ethos

Resistance to deplatforming

User ownership principles

Those values line up really closely with what Nostr is trying to do — decentralized identity (pubkeys), relay-based distribution, censorship resistance, Lightning-native payments (zaps), etc.

If Odysee integrated with or transitioned toward Nostr:

Creator identities could be portable across the broader Nostr ecosystem

Video posts could propagate across relays

Boosts/zaps could tie into Lightning more seamlessly

It could position itself as the YouTube “video layer” of Nostr

Right now, if someone wants a decentralized YouTube alternative, the usual answers are:

PeerTube (Fediverse-based)

Odysee (LBRY-based)

But Nostr doesn’t really have a dominant video platform yet. Odysee already has the infrastructure, userbase, and crypto alignment.

So I’m curious:

Would this even be technically feasible?

Would it undermine Odysee, or could it complement it?

Would you prefer Odysee stay on its current path, or evolve toward broader protocol interoperability?

Is protocol alignment (Nostr, Fediverse, etc.) even something Odysee should prioritize?

Genuinely curious what this community thinks.

**Discovering the power of RSS**

**Discovering the power of RSS**
Should have done this much sooner, but it's AMAZING. :blobfoxsignbigfan:

I've been distancing myself from YouTube lately. Finding alternative platforms and ways to subscribe to content. RSS have been a great tool for the purpose and I Iove how I can get feeds from services like @peertube and @odysee
@newpipe is also great tool to be able to watch channels that are only on YT, but Google prevents me to watch anything with my VPN. Maybe I host my own VPN instead, but that's a project for another time. For now I won't have access to YouTube and that's fine.

The next phase is my phone that I already have waiting for adoption, after which I can say bye bye to Google :waving_hand:
