Rotgrind - Episode 20 - Early VOD
Added 2022-11-14 23:18:44 +0000 UTCPLEASE READ, AS PATREON HAS CHANGED STUFF AND WE NEED YOUR INPUT!
Recently Patreon has enabled the ability for us to upload videos directly to the website. Meaning that these aren't hosted on Youtube and aren't using the Youtube player. We need to know if this new patreon video player works out for you all.
We setup a strawpoll here so you can let us know how you feel about the change.
We here would prefer to use the Patreon player as it more securely locks the VODs behind the tier, meaning people can't share the unlisted URL around, which we've seen the Youtube Analytics and people do it a lot.
We also prefer it so we don't have a bunch of older and unlisted videos hanging around out Youtube Channel archives.
ZoranTheBear believes that quality service prevails, so if the YT player works WAY better for folks then he'd prefer those supporting the show be able to watch in comfort. So we'll try to continue using the system that best serves you until another factor forces us to use this one.
TLDR:
You good with watching on the Patreon Video Player for the VODs? Or is it really bad and you'd much prefer watching it on Youtube via an unlisted link?

Hell yes! This was such a good episode. I absolutely understand keeping the initial VOD in patreon and I am all for it. People still get to see the eps on youtube, and us patrons still get our value in convenience.

2022-11-15 20:45:56 +0000 UTCplayer works fine for me, but I have a question: if I/we watch on Patreon and not on Youtube (i.e. the public release), does this screw with your algorithm? I know Youtube can be a bitch about that…
