I've been using a mix of selfhosted Invidous / Freetube at home, revanced on the phone. I'm good so far, but I don't consume much YouTube anyway so the homepage / subscription page doesn't impact my experience, as I can personalize it in Invidious anyway.
You can try Peertube or Odyssee.
You can use the NewPipe app on mobile to go around adds. And the subscription page shows all the videos of all the channels you are subscribed to
For iOS users, look into sideloading uYou+ or, if you don't wanna mess with this, check out Yattee (quick and dirty setup guide).
Peertube is the Fediverse equivalent. It needs more content, and more instances to host said content, but it's a good start.
They got rid of the Dislike button
There's an extension to get it back
They changed the Homepage to 2 ginormous thumbnails per row
And they've hidden the 'watch later' button, to press it now you first need to wait for the video preview to load 🙄
WTF are they thinking?
It's like they purposely make the UI a little bit worse every two months.
Hey ya'll I have a quick question. So I was thanking content creators make content for the hope to get revenue of some sort. I mean there's got to be some incentive. YouTube is taking things a bit far with multiple unskipable ads. I wish for the old old YouTube. Or maybe competitors. But how can we hope to do that when you need to have an incentive for content creators. Question based on my curiosity not a content creator myself.
odysee ?
NewPipe is the alternative so far. Libretube is cool, but the instances are unstable. Odysee is also good though it can get slow depending on your connection.
Nebula, it is a paid service, but I'm happy to pay for something that just works. There's a lot of smart creators there as well
Same. A lot of science and history YouTubers post there. And there's a lot of early releases and exclusives like Real Engineering's amazing D-day series. Pretty inexpensive and totally worth it
You can watch youtube videos without annoyances there
This appears to be the most appealing solution to me so far. TY
yewtu.be too...
