I watch YouTube when I eat etc. I pretty much solely watch gameplays. Is there any alternative? Or an opensource way to view YouTube? I don’t want to use Twitch because Amazon and I grew out of enjoying streamers in my late teens and it’s been a while since.

Edit: I don’t ever use it on mobile. Desktop via Firefox only.

    Peertube is simply not good however. I encourage people to try it but it’s just not even remotely close to YouTube content.

    For now I think Newpipe is a much, much better choice.

      I agree that it’s not fully “there” yet, but it won’t get “there” without users engaging with the videos. I try to use PeerTube for any YouTube creator I enjoy that uploads there. For example, Linux Experiment uploads there so I tune in weekly to see his news updates.

      Let’s still support upcoming platforms where we can :)
