Both leaving reddit and leaving google s.e. were two things that I thought would be harder than they were.
Leaving google isn't hard.
Leaving YouTube specifically, however... Well, it's been getting easier as content seems to be less and less frequent or quality.
This is true, I still use youtube and I don't see it changing soon since there are no viable alternatives.
Personally, I can’t imagine what is on YouTub that’s worth watching. I don’t know, I haven’t used it in ages.
I think that's unfair, there is so much content there and so many content creators that saying there is nothing worth watching just comes out as snobbish.
The sheer variety is the key to YouTube’s dominant position. Whatever subject you want to watch something about, there’s a very good chance you’ll find it.
I can't speak for your particular interests, but in my experience there is something for pretty much every niche. That's what keeps YouTube in their dominant position as well.
