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?

    not necessarily a different service but newpipe x sponsorblock fork might solve your issue with youtube, you could also try youtube revanced (please patch the app yourself) but be aware it still has trackers of google

    or there is an extension called enhancer for youtube that can remove elements of the site which you don’t like

        here is the patcher app, you need to download the apk from apkmirror (be sure to select the collect version) then apply the patches to it using the app
