Full30 is a good option but there’s some politics there I think, otherwise there wouldn’t be loads of popular gun bloggers on PornHub.

If anyone’s website or server hosting company spits their dummy out on them, you’ll find a cozy and secure home at our company. PM for details.

full30 is a limited option with apparently lots of underlying problems as to delivery and access, youtube may become a toxic anti gun site, but at present there really is nothing else to touch it for wide access and performance.

I've seen DTube mentioned as an alternative (About).
DTube is a "Decentralized, Blockchain Based Video Platform" - Resistant to censorship and Ads free.
Slight drawback being that it doesn't seem to work at the moment.

It's absolutely disgusting that a legal sport/hobby is being blocked.
I work freelance, and the current as well as previous 2 firms that I've worked at have all had a filter set for 'gun/firearms/shooting' etc.,etc and I haven't been able to access any forum (incl this one), or RFD website etc at lunchtimes for several years now.

Probably more chance of accessing Porn at work 8-)

Haha, I know the feeling! Loads of gun pages work on my works Internet, but then many pages on vendor websites are blocked due to key words (ie plasma guns for thermal spraying has been blocked before, but "the shooting shed" is not :))

Two or three of my videos have been effected. I assumed some sort of Bot deemed them unsuitable content and blocked them but after asking for a manual review they were reinstated although now a couple have been marked as unsuitable to most advertisers.

These are perfectly harmless videos.
Sighting in a rifle - now unsuitable for adverts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwD5zu7yTeI

Homemade pistol - was taken down after complaints but after manual review reinstated. (Still banned in S. Korea)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LTanlKuT_4

Deer filmed with night scope - Taken down but reinstated after review.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K_T3_T_MTk

Reactive targets - Now age restricted and no adverts.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA3NxKrETpE

Hand made Die - Just yesterday advertising was stopped on this. - I've asked for a review.

Personally I stopped using youtube ages ago but have looked at the odd thing on full30 and it seems OK.
Thank you for the link.

This may well be the only way for firearms content to appease the snowflakes of this world (not that they should be appeased - don't like, then don't watch!).

I had the same problem accessing this site, one of the range sites where I shoot and RFD sites etc., I just dropped an e-mail to IT along the lines of this is my hobby etc... and they unlocked the firearms content or as they termed it "weapons" content for me.
