the only real alternatives to youtube for me are probably curiousity stream and floatplane, both of which cost subscriptions i can’t afford at the moment.
Edit: I did grab a subscription to Nebula for a year for €25 because I like someone on there. Seemed reasonable for a whole year of everything they have, and I do like watching Legal Eagle these days.
YouTube is such a great source for adding skills and knowledge
Slowly though. Watching is wasting a lot of time, and nearly everyone on there stretches it out in the name of “content” and sponsers.
There are a few that don’t, but realistically, that knowledge is elsewhere. It’s a shame people don’t self host videos as much any more. I just embed them in my web page if I absolutely need to.
Or simply make the files available, which if you look around, a lot of them are out there, so download and watch at your pace, and delete when done.
Personally I think it’s time to just move on you tube is done.
But if it’s roku they can add the playlet channel. Youtube without ads.

With Linus? You couldn’t pay me to watch that.

It’s run by Luke technically, but yeah it’s under Linus Media Group. A lot of creators I like (such as Wade from Dank Pods) are on there.
I would never give that clown a dime.
YouTube will not be done until a viable alternative is established.
Its done for me, there is nothing there I need to see.
I’m really surprised by this. YouTube is such a great source for adding skills and knowledge if you can weed through the crap.
It is admittedly more and more difficult to weed though.

every time a viable alternative is established google will buy it
yeahhh thats the invidious frontend i was gonna install.
got it. It is as simple as them adding the channel. It doesn’t have a lot of features, but it is serviceable.
