If in the future they make it completely impossible to use ad blockers I'll just stop actively using YouTube. I hope a good enough alternative comes around.

You could give Odysee a try. I was pleasently surprised at how well it works, and how nice the UI/UX is. Especially considering it is a decentralized platform.
It's missing a lot of the content that youtube has. Especially if you trying to look up a specific video or niche topic. But there's still a lot of great content available if you are happy to browse.
Oh boy that website looks amazing, I'll be keeping an eye on it. I hope Youtube changes the direction it is going, but if it doesn't at least we have a couple alternatives, I also found out that the ''fediverse'' has its own alternative with PeerTube.
