    @BraveSirZaphod this is pretty much what I was going to respond to you with

    I understand people need to be paid, I’m just not willing to pay in my time. The paid service is also questionable as well.

    I rediscovered this guy very recently, he talks a lot about the same points I’ve been making and I think he does it in a pretty fair way, I’m curious what your thoughts are (anyone feel free to jump in of course)

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
