Been an avid Youtube viewer since the very beginning. Now, I'm paying for the site and using a bunch of extensions just to get a worse experience than I was getting on youtube 5 - 10 years ago. After seeing all of my favorite content become unprofitable and die off, I am so ready to jump ship. I think in the immediate future, Patreon and Nebula are providing the alternative that will get creators paid reliably.

I have been using Nebula for a while now and can very much recommend it. I barely use YouTube now at all.

LBRY is also pretty good. For YouTube I use NewPipe and FreeTube. They make it a lot better

And piped too, I use a client called libretube, feels like a native android app
