how do I escape pic related? any alternatives that aren't

>>62063758
You can't escape the botnet.

>>62063773
Not with that attitude you can't.

It's basically THE Google product without a sizeable alternative. You can replace Google Search, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Chrome, etc., but the alternatives to YouTube are still way behind by a significant margin when it comes to content and userbase.

Vidme comes very close. It reminds me of YouTube back in the early days (community-wise, it's pretty modern technology-wise).

>escape

don't go there, problem solved. or are you talking about using the free hosting and streaming service they offer you and actually lose shekels on?

Also, Vidme lets you import all of your existing videos from YouTube for an easy migration process.

>>62063926
already use newpipe, it's still youtube

>>62064810
So what, there's no ads which is like most of the botnet concerns

>>62063945
vidme is actually a great alternative but has too few users

>>62063758
You can delete your account and sorta just go do other things.

>>62063758
Only use of youtube is listening to music.
Just use some shit like spotify or if you really want to get rid of the botnet, put everything on your computer and stream it to your other devices.

If you actually watch videos on youtube you should reconsider your life

>but has too few users

As does pretty much every other alternative video sharing website compared to YouTube.

it's... Perfect

Serious answer. Use a VPN, block cookies, disable JavaScript and use the play with MPV Firefox extension.

You can use hooktube to search existing youtube videos without going to youtube.
https://hooktube.com/

Use hooktube my dude, just got search functionality too. It's all I use unless I explicitly want to support a channel.

vidme is just as bad as youtube for deleting shit it doesnt like
it unverified a bunch of political channels without any explanation recently

>>62065707
And what exactly does VPN use accomplish? You wanna give that info to google too? Retard

>>62063758
Just use adblock, they get nothing from you then

>>62066476
They can't link your IP to your interests. Along with the other measures I listed there's no reasonable way they can track what you watch.

>>62066668
I hope you're not logged into any accounts behind that VPN usage because if so you just tied your "anonymous" VPN IP to your google account, good job

>>62066741
Wouldn't the fact its a shared IP be disputed? Thousands of people have that IP lad.

>>62066741
I don't have a google account. Also besides, most VPN providers just let you switch between multiple servers and change your IP anyways

>>62066765
It still advertises what your VPN provider is and the fact that you use one to the botnet

>>62066796
In that case yeah it's fine. It's just some retards like to fire up their Facebook and google accounts behind a VPN which is about the dumbest thing you could do if you actually care about privacy

It's literally free HD video hosting, why would you want to escape it?
Just leech off of it with Youtube-dl

>>62063758
As a video storage/streaming platform, you'll find plenty. If its specific content you're looking for, there isn't really much with the same scope of offering.
