Could we just get YouTube to stop working…everywhere?

[–] rjc@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago (4 children)

No way, then I'd have to actually pay people to fix stuff.

Now if shorts stopped working, id be good with that.

eh, there have been some education shorts I've seen that got me to subscribe to their YouTube channel.

I just want to have the ability to control the algorithm on my account so my recommendations don't get clogged with low quality, spammy, rage bait videos

I know of at least one selfhosted alternative: https://github.com/chris-lovejoy/YouTube-video-finder

There may be others if you look around.
