Hi everyone!

I’ve almost entirely degoogled my life, except for Youtube.

Here are my center of interests and some channels I follow:

  • Linux: The Linux Experiment, Tech Hut
  • Basketball: NBA, Andy Hoops, Heat Check, Jonny Arnett, BasketNews
  • Cars: Throttle House, Everyday Driver, Car and Driver
  • Console Gaming: GamingBolt, IGN
  • Tech: Linus Tech Tips, Techquickie

Concerning Linux, it has been easy to find alternatives to YouTube as The Linux Experiment is on PeerTube and I can support him for 1$ a month Through Patreon.

Tech Hut is on Odysee so I could watch his videos here and support him through Buy Me A Coffee or something similar if I wanted to.

I know I could watch everything from the Linus Tech Tips on Floatplane but 5$ a month is a bit too expensive.

Do you have any suggestions about anyone producing similar content to what I’ve described above (Basketball, Console Gaming, Cars and Tech) that I could watch on a YouTube alternative?

I don’t mind paying 1-2$ a month for a channel I enjoy but I can’t pay more for now 😇

      Libretube gives the error for me either straight away or after a few videos. Sometimes using a VPN and changing servers all the time helps.

      FreeTube is a desktop only app unfortunately.

        Have you tried disabling the Piped proxy?

        I’ve linked FreeTube Android in my first comment, actually.

          Of course I disabled it. It doesn’t work at all with it enabled.

          Sorry I didn’t see. I’ll look at it later.
