I was using uYouPlus+ sideloaded on my phone until it broke recently, now I’ve found using Brave browser for just YouTube is the solution

I highly recommend creators to upload videos to another site as well.

I’m actually looking to start a YouTube channel, but I don’t know if I should even bother since YouTube seems to be going out of its way to try to kill itself

Do other services! Like Peertube and then mirror videos on youtube and odyssey so you still get traction
