i’ve grown increasingly, increasingly tired of youtube lately. the exhausting shorts advertised everywhere, overwhelming thumbnails, sensory overload and just generally a really piss poor site. Is there anywhere someone like me can turn to?
Peertube has no content but tries to imitate YouTube as a p2p federated alt.
YouTube eats up so much storage and bandwidth, I have a hard time believing anything on the fediverse could keep up.
That and Reddit and Twitter content creators “work” for free. YouTube creators have an expectation of being paid which is another big disadvantage for peertube.
Would be nice. We have decentralised replacements for Twitter and Reddit now we just need one for YouTube that’s beyond the reach of the corporate assholes. Imagine being able to swear within the first 30 seconds of a video and not get buried where it will never be seen.
On mobile devices have a look on newpipe and libretube, you’ll find them over f-droid or as APK directly. It’s been months since I’ve watched ads. Don’t forget to donate, it’s very easy, even if it’s only one buck, they’re fighting for a good cause.

Any iOS solutions ? Besides loading it in safari i can’t seem to find a fix for the app.
Side load uyouplus https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus/releases
You just have to set up the sponsorblock in the configs, it comes disabled

If YT wrecks new pipe, Odysee is the only viable alternative on the free web right now IMO.
Odysee
Ugh, I just took a look and made the mistake of clicking on the category ‘News and Politics’. JFC I’m going to have to take a blowtorch to my motherboard just to be safe. First channel: the Alex Jones Show…
