LBRY, is a youtube alternative first incorporated in 2015. As a privately held company with under fifty employees, it is widely viewed as an underdog in the alt-tech sphere. Due to its use of blockchain technology, it is physically impossible for the admins at LBRY incorporated, to censor content. Thanks to its content mirroring program, numerous Youtubers such as ItsRucka & Tim Pool have used and promoted the site.[1]


According to their Linkedin

“ "LBRY is building the ultimate content distribution protocol. This protocol combines blockchain, P2P data distribution, and good old fashioned applications, to provide the first direct-to-audience distribution pipeline without middlemen. Each element of the LBRY software suite is open-source and available on Github. Anyone can build applications on top of the LBRY protocol or fork existing ones, taking advantage of the LBRY blockchain to meet their content needs for any type of media." The company is based in Manchester, New Hampshire."[2] ”
