Hi! sorry for the random topic πŸ˜…

Youtube keeps getting more and more annoying. Is there a good other platform where to migrate? If people were to migrate, where would they go?

the thing I liked about youtube is the massive amount of content, and knowing that if I upload a video, it's really easy to watch by others. I like the ability to follow channels too.

Might want to check out YouTube Vanced, It's a super easy to install app that accesses YouTube but blocks all ads and everything annoying and you can control everything and play with your screen off and all that. So just do that until youtube becomes unusable and then we'll go to the alternative once when we have to.

Vanced only works occasionally.

Revanced or Revanced extended is the new thing. It's really great, no more shorts, no ads, no in-video ads (thanks sponsorblock). Shit's fire

I find it a pain in the arse having to do all the patches again every time YouTube changes something.

[–] AndreTelevise@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Revanced is pretty glitchy as well. Anything that uses an old APK of YouTube as its base will have issues.

I have had zero issues with it so far going on four months now. I am interested in being prepared though, what issues have you had?

[–] Zeps@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some days it works. Other days only shorts work. Then there are days when pretty much nothing works

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

haven't had any problems with it so far, works perfectly every day. What os are you using it on?
