  Something I didn't even realize I wanted was to not have some eyeball-pulling algorithm recommending things to me. It's lovely.

    Yep. Personally use Piped, but it’s the same idea. It basically saves me of watching useless videos everyday.

      Now if only Piped wouldn't error out and be unusable for 10 minutes at a time every couple hours...

    That’s why I’ve been using YouTube without logging in and if using in browser, I have the cookies autodelete after I close the page to start new each time.

      I don’t care. I was giving you the opportunity to inform others about something you think is cool.

      You blew it.
