I just decided to stop using youtube a little over a week ago. Takes some willpower, and willingness to live without some things that may only be on youtube. I existed quite fine before those things existed, I'll survive again.

I instead use real.video, bitchute.com, dtube.video, and dlive.io for my current video needs.

They have their issues, but it is worth it to me to say F*ck you to youtube.
