I am trying to move more away from YouTube. I have a Nebula subscription, and it reduces the “withdrawal” somewhat. I still am more interested in PeerTube due to being an open platform.

Any recommendations to get me started?

    Are you moving away because you don’t like the company running it?

    ReVanced and blockers is a good solution for that in its own way.

    But if it’s something else, please let me know because YouTube is probably what I use most in place of a streaming service, so if there’s something better, let me know.

      Theres nothing better, they have a monopoly. Everything else is going to be a huge downgrade.

      So to ease me into something that scratches that itch, I am asking for alternatives. Something interesting I can learn from during breakfast with my wife. Unfortunately alternatives are not great, they all lack something vital. Biggest issue is too few creators. So using Grayjay connected to different other platforms can maybe cover some of the need.

      Yeah ReVanced/Morphe work but if you really want to go against the monopoly YouTube has as a consumer you need to consume alternatives. More people on alternatives -> more creator will switch and so forth. Of course it is somewhat a chicken and egg problem but thats what you should do from a consumer perspective to break that circle.
