YouTube is about to begin another wave of mass deletions of non-woke content on December 10. This is the new internet where any opinions that go against Big Tech are crushed.

Is video sharing really so difficult? YouTube is famous for operating at somewhere between a loss or barely a profit. How do we bring back the old internet?

It's doable but very difficult, splinter sites rarely manage to be successful.
Dailymotion and Vimeo have a lot more money behind them than any site made by 4chan autists ever will, and they aren't even close to being able to challenge YouTube.
For it to work you would need:
a) A good GUI (all the competitors fail at this for some reason, especially BitChute).
b) Insane amounts of infrastructure to host/serve videos, or take advantage of P2P platforms like IPFS (which has its own set of issues).
c) The ability to draw in a large amount of users and not just autists (spamming on YouTube in 2019 is very difficult, you would need content creators to advertise it, and most won't be willing without a paycheck).
d) If required by costs, a way to get lots of advertisers on board (the hardest task and partially why YouTube censors) or some other way to gain revenue.
If you can figure out those 4, you would have a viable competitor.
Maybe Twetch but for videos would be doable with BSV in the future but transaction fees are probably too high to handle uploading videos to the blockchain.

Also maybe look into this, you could make something like this but for video streaming instead:

The only issues with it are that people figure out ways to crack the program so you don't have to store the 40 GB, Japs frequently block Chinese and Korean IP ranges so they don't serve them content, and mostly only autists will use it (since even while it's encrypted, the 40 GB+ data store can contain CP).

When link moons we can fund a new "youtube" ourselves

You mean they are deleting E-beggers? Good. Tell me a "non-woke" channel that does it for fun (the original purpose for YT) and doesn't do it for a quick buck on the side, and I might actually be concerned.
