    IGTV

    IGTV - Best YouTube Alternatives

    IGTV is part of Instagram to post and share videos. If you have an Instagram account, then you have access to IGTV as well. It was added as a feature to Instagram in 2018 as a YouTube alternative. On Instagram, you can add videos for 30 seconds, but on IGTV, you can upload videos for up to 1 hour. It has some constraints on posting videos on IGTV, like the video should have a minimum frame rate of 30 FPS and a maximum file size of 3.6GB. IGTV mainly focuses on Vertical video content, which is easy to watch on the go. If you are a video content creator, then IGTV is an excellent platform for your talent as they are easy to shoot and post video, especially in vertical mode.

    Facebook Watch

    Facebook watch  - Best YouTube Alternatives

    The Facebook watch is one of the best alternatives for YouTube. It is integrated within Facebook as part of which watch only shows video-based content. You can stream live with your camera or even stream games live while playing on YouTube watch for free. It was easy to use as you have already familiar with Facebook and the watch interface was just as same as Facebook. Also, you don’t need to create a separate account to log in on Facebook watch, as you can log in with your Facebook account. The Facebook watch is the best platform to share video series (Episode wise videos) as the video is in a timeline view that makes it catchy and easy to watch. Also, it has lots of creator and viewer on this platform which make it one of the largest video sharing platform.

    DailyMotion

    dailymotion - Best YouTube Alternatives

    Dailymotion is another popular YouTube alternative platform where you can create and share your creations. It works almost as similar to YouTube, but the only thing which I hate on DailyMotion is its user interface. DailyMotion UI looks like some News channel page and not like a video sharing platform. Also, DailyMotion allows you to watch the video without any age restriction and signing in to the platform. It also allows anyone to republish your video on their site and nothing you can do about it (so video creators be aware). For viewers, it was an excellent platform alternative to YouTube with tons of videos on various categories like News, Sports, Music, and Entertainment.

    DTube

    Dtube  - Best YouTube Alternatives

    DTube is a crypto-decentralized video sharing platform that first of its kind and built along with STEEM blockchain. It provides you with an interface that looks exactly like YouTube. Like other streaming platforms, you can earn money on Dtube in the form of cryptocurrency. Also, it was ad-free without any subscriptions, which is the only thing that makes Dtube stand out from YouTube and some features like resistance to censorship, which allow you to upload a video without any age restrictions. The most important thing to be noted on Dtube is that once a video is uploaded, it cannot be deleted (so make sure before uploading a video). Dtube has no restriction on file size for uploading.

    Veoh

    Veoh - Best YouTube Alternatives

    Veoh is an Internet television company that has started its own video sharing platform along with an Israeli startup called Qlipso. It has content mostly based on movies and TV shows. It has features like share and watch videos, upload videos, edit contents, post comments, message users, and save & edit features. Veoh has millions of videos and content in it, which are distributed as different categories like videos, music, movies, channels ad group. Under those categories, there are several genres you can select to view videos or movies with more specific. The User interface of Veoh is not as cool as YouTube, but it was worth giving a try as YouTube Alternatives.

    9GaG TV

    9gag  - Best YouTube Alternatives

    9GaG TV is a video sharing platform just like IGTV and Facebook Watch. It mostly has user-uploaded videos mostly under categories like fail and prank, comedy, game, cute, movie and TV, music, and many more. You can scroll and watch anytime and anywhere. You can also share the video from 9GaG video directly to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. If you are a Facebook user, you don’t feel any change in the transition to 9GaG TV. It has millions of videos uploaded daily, mostly of short videos that are binge-worthy to watch again and again.

    MetaCafe

    metacafe - Best YouTube Alternatives

    Metacafe is a video sharing platform that was launched before YouTube, and there is no progression or development in it like YouTube has. The main reason why this platform is not as popular as YouTube is because it mostly has a video that makes us cringe to watch. Also, the privacy policy is similar to that of DailyMotion, which allows anyone can upload your video, and no copyrights can be claimed. It does not have any age restriction or log in required to view the video on MetaCafe. Also, it is recommended not to use it by kids as the content filter was not as good as any other platform.

    Internet Archive

    Internet archive - Best YouTube Alternatives

    Internet Archive is a Digital library for videos, books, and several other archive contents. It has a video that is not mostly from the current and trending topic. But it has a large library of videos and movies which can view and also downloaded easily. It is the only platform that provides the feature of downloading the video you watch directly to your local storage. It is good for the viewer but not for the video creator as their content can be easily downloaded. Also, they are completely free to use and view, and some videos need to be paid according to the uploader.
