Who does that hurt exactly? Not me seems like that will be your problem.
Lmao, my what??
Dude, that webpage is so full of trackers, it doesn’t even load with ublock origin. Here’s the archive link.
Bitch i don’t even use your mail no more. Eat all of my ublock O
Peer/Freetube baby
OP that site is absolute cancer on mobile.
Even with ad blockers.
Besides the pop-up beggin me for a monthly tithe using my Google account (lol) i didn’t have any ads mobile with my librewolf browser (what got ubO built in). Did i stumble on the optimal setup?
I didn’t have any ads either with IronFox, but UbO had to chew on a lot to get there.
Meh. Hard pass. I don’t read any article site that requires JS to be turned on.
Joke’s on them, I don’t have a Google account!
But yah, I don’t see any ads either. I am running a PiHole and using Firefox Focus.
Too late, already deleted my Google account.
Jokes on them. I do not have a YouTube account.
Jokes on them, I’ve been thinking of quitting for a while now. If they pull a Spez, it’s just going to help me reach my goal.
Please do!
Good reminder to de google yourself.
Losing your YouTube account also means your gmail.
How many things do you have that use your gmail for authentication? Many services do not let you migrate off your signup email.
Start today: buy your own domain name and sign up to an email provider with it. It does not take long to set up, but make sure you have auto renewal enabled to protect yourself.
YSK you can export all your subscriptions and import them into newpipe.
Same with all other account data. Back it up.

What takes a long time is notifying everyone you want to continue being able to communicate with of your new email address.
Yeah, this is the most annoying part by far
That and services that don’t let you change your email to migrate to a new one.
This is a big one. I have a lot of Google photos usage, and while I’ve tried OneDrive and PrintDrive, and while both are decent they don’t really match up and I’ve been hesitant to self host immach or something because to ke the point of a cloud photo storage was to be part of my 321 backup strategy.
Getting bounced from photos for youtube usage would really be a tough pill, but it would definitely hasten my exit.
Don’t use your yt account for email or anything else.
Humm, since I watch most of my yt on my iPhone on my commute I do get ads, at home I use uBlock, but only watch a small ammount of yt on my computer, I wonder if that is enough…
PeerTube, here I come
Peertube is so good, we just need more people hosting content on it. Something like dedicated hosters for the content of each YouTube’s/Streamer/Country would be perfect. If people just use and upload videos on popular instances, the storage of that instance is going to ran out pretty easily.
This is old news. Likely AI regurgitated slop
I follow youtubers via RSS, so if they nuke my account… nothing happens.
interesting… found a page that explains how to do this, will have to play around with it at some point
Getting the channel ID can be annoying. This website https://www.rsslookup.com/ finds the RSS link for any youtube channel and many other sites for you.
RSS is my religion, my saviour, my love. With a nice RSS reader you can create categories, filter by keywords, add tags for archiving, etc
I have feeds for youtube, blogs, github release changelogs, protest announcements, news, …
I really need to get round to setting it up. I know it won’t be difficult, I’ve just been pretty mentally drained and feel like I haven’t had the brain space yet
What RSS Reader do you guys recommend?
