In my opinion we need to support other websites like odysee and peertube. If everyone here continue to watch content on yt we won’t have a real alternative. This is my thought. For me the best alternative right now is odysee and I’m trying to watch only creator there. (If u want a list of content creator I can write it down)

    A solution that I’m inching towards is just cutting the time I spend watching videos.

    After years upon years watching YouTube and finally arriving at degoogling I’m starting to get to the point where I open up yt and … it’s not scratching that itch anymore. The realisation that this time is wasted and could’ve been spent on doing stuff that matters is nagging in my head.

    Not to mention the thought of feeding big tech data that might end up aiding another atrocity unto humanity.

    I can get my news elsewhere (here for example), tutorials might take some reading instead.

    I’m not saying I’m gonna go cold turkey day one and be successful at it. But the idea is growing.

    Odysee is a nonstarter for me with its lack of moderation, resulting in a lot of right-wing hate filled garbage. Also, their thing with using some virtual currency and paying creators is weird. I want no part of cryptocurrency or “space dollars” or whatever they want to call it. PeerTube is ideal but not enough people are posting to it, which is frustrating. Youtube frontends, like invidious, are our best solution until creators move to something else.
