      well, since the debacle I was thinking: do I really need YT? What if I don’t access it at all, will my life become miserable? Nope, because YT is not something I NEED, just something I WANT. Once we realize that, it’s easy to look elsewhere, or even find something more productive to do.

        You mean from the technical side? Sure. Lot’s of other video hosters around. It’s just content wise were there is no comparison.

        Not even 1:1, I’d settle for 1:50, but that’s not even remotely close to what the “alternatives” are offering. A video hosting platform is worthless without creators, and the creators aren’t moving on from YouTube.
