Isn't that the thing that a bunch of YouTube creators pitch inside their channels along with VPNs and supplements? I would never consider it because the ads rub me the wrong way. Or is it some alternative frontend for YouTube that happens to have a similar sounding name?

It is a co-op where creators make videos without the threat of being demonetized or algorithmically punished - and it’s not garbage in the way you might expect people fearful of being demonetized might be.

Lots of excellent legal analysis, history, logistics, engineering content there.

It was initially founded by some of the most popular information YouTubers like CGPGrey, but he mysteriously left the project (I suspect one side wanted to be evil and the other side did not)

Not quite. It's a co-op, where the creators own the shares of the company.

Supposedly a more holistic approach to video hosting with less oversight from the platform itself.

It's a place for creators to host long form content (that the google algorithm now disincentivizes) as well as history content that can't show a lot of history because of "violence" (like the holocaust).

Youtube is demonetizing channels left, right, and centre.

Nebula is actually quite a decent alternative/supplement to YouTube and worth the subscription IMHO.
