well, since the debacle I was thinking: do I really need YT? What if I don’t access it at all, will my life become miserable? Nope, because YT is not something I NEED, just something I WANT. Once we realize that, it’s easy to look elsewhere, or even find something more productive to do.

You can’t honestly say there isn’t anything comparable to YouTube. I can think of 3 of the top of my head. You just want 1-1 and that’s not possible

You mean from the technical side? Sure. Lot’s of other video hosters around. It’s just content wise were there is no comparison.

There’s ways of getting YouTube’s content without going to YouTube too no?

Yes. These are called alternative frontends. You can read this amazing Privacy Guides article to learn more about them: www.privacyguides.org/en/frontends/?h=fr#youtube

Not even 1:1, I’d settle for 1:50, but that’s not even remotely close to what the “alternatives” are offering. A video hosting platform is worthless without creators, and the creators aren’t moving on from YouTube.
