Way ahead of you. Recently got Nebula, which has dramatically reduced the amount of time I spend on YT. Besides, this way I can help also the people who make the videos. They don’t need to be so dependent on the whimsical and unpredictable nature of the algorithm and the ever changing landscape of what is or isn’t advertiser friendly on the platform.
If YT feels like further cranking up the enshittification dial, I say, bring it on. I’m ready to drop my watch time even lower than it currently is.
And still, I’m more likely to stop using YouTube than to stop using an ad blocker.
Good news: you can have the best of both by watching everything for free through piped video!

That’s what they want. Get all the users they aren’t able to monetize off the platform to lower their costs.
