The Vision Behind PlebTV.

With PlebTV, we are taking a significant step toward safeguarding our content from the potential threats posed by AI and tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Apple. PlebTV offers a flat-free, unlimited watching experience without ads, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in our extensive library of Bitcoin-focused content. Currently, we have over 258 titles available, with plans to import even more. We are still leveraging YouTube to host content, but we will soon™ begin moving to our own servers and offering alternative sign-in methods.

Our TV platform also includes premium content leveraging the new Zaprite API, providing an enhanced experience for our audience who would rather pay in Bitcoin. We will begin adding more course content in the coming weeks and are striking deals with more individual content creators. We encourage you to reach out if you want to be featured on PlebTV. As we continue to iterate on the TV platform, we are also beginning our efforts in original content development, further rounding out our offerings. By launching PlebTV, we aim to build a robust platform where our branded content can live unimpeded by external influences. 

A New Era of TV.

This is an early release of PlebTV, but it marks a pivotal moment for PlebLab as we venture into the entertainment space. Envisioned over a year ago, we believe now is the right time to expand our reach and impact to a wider global audience. We have further plans to introduce something magical by early 2025. We are working hard everyday to get there sooner rather than later. Our vision for PlebTV is not just about preserving content but about rethinking the way media is delivered.

This one is for the Plebs.

At PlebLab, we aim to empower the next generation of Bitcoin builders, hackers, and startups. As a vibrant hackerspace and community accelerator in Austin, Texas, we are committed to fostering a community of developers, hackers, creatives, and open-source software and hardware builders.

PlebLab Startup Day - Tickets on sale now!

💡**The Challenge:**

Many of us are passionate about building companies or creating innovative projects, but finding the right partner or co-founder can be a real struggle. Traditional methods like hackathons or meetups are great but only sometimes connect us with our ideal collaborator.

🚀 **Monthly Collaboration Posts!**  
This is our second monthly collaboration post on Stacker News! These posts will be a dedicated space for sharing what you’re building and discovering potential collaborators.

[Checkout out our first one here.](https://stacker.news/items/338224)

✍️ **What to Include in Your Post**  
To streamline the process, we suggest the following template for your posts but feel free to adjust Stackers!:

- **Name/Nym:** [Your Name] 
- **Summary of What You’re Building:** [Brief description of your project or idea or GitHub.] 
- **What Kind of Help Are You Looking For?** (e.g., engineers, marketing, sales, legal, education, design, mentorship, advisors, venture capital, strategy, technical consulting.) 
- **Purpose:** Is this for fun, or are you aiming to build a Bitcoin business? 
- **How to Contact You:** [Your preferred contact method] 

🤝 **Let’s Build Together!**  
This is an initiative that I hold dear to my heart. We have a strong collaboration environment at PlebLab, which I want to bring to the Stacker News community. We’re open to suggestions and excited to see how this idea evolves! I will also bring this up on Stacker News Live every first week of the month to get the most visibility for all the builders who participate, and try my best to facilitate an introduction or collaborator.
