I am willing to completely ditch YouTube and not access it, but there are a couple of channels that just aren’t anywhere else that I do enjoy watching.
Currently, I use RSS feeds in order to stay up to date with their videos, and I use new pipe to actually watch the videos, but still, it’s annoying. I would like to stop using them and cannot. I feel as though I’m being held hostage.
It’s a frontend for yt-dlp and whenever I want to watch something I just download it and have a copy saved locally. It makes it harder to binge youtube feeds that the algorithm tries to shove down my throat, and that’s a good thing.

I have this running on a local server: https://github.com/alexta69/metube

I’ve noticed quite a few people who used to do YouTube videos have moved to podcasts because of YT’s fuckery.
