  Use an alternative front end.

    That’s still YouTube though and they could and probably will shut down those.

    This looks cool, are there any that you’d recommend from the list?

  Many channels I watch are on Nebula as well - that one is paid but it’s yearly 15$ or so. You can get it bundled with curiosity stream. Some channels upload to rumble, but I am not familiar with that platform. Then there is odysee… it’s kinda all over the place. There are channels that upload on odysee, but I don’t like the crypto bullshit that is associated with that platform. The other thing not only with odysee but all new smaller platforms - they are a good place for all the scummy outcast that gets filtered on YT. I try not to read comments otherwise I would have to puke.

    Also a happy customer of Nebula here. I’ve come across some pretty interesting content on there.

      YEs and some YT creators even add bonus videos.

  i disabled my history, so now youtube doesn’t suggest me anything, I have a blank page. I still have my subs but blank page by default, but the good thing is I do have have to engage and if I don’t know what to look for, I close the page.

  ublock still work, btw.

    Ublock is good so far for me too. If they ban it then I guess I will have more free time to spare :D

  I started using RSS reader for my YouTube feed and it’s much better than YouTube itself.

  Do something else with your life.

  You won’t be able to watch the content you want on other sites until people start uploading there.
