I realised a lot of my yt usage was for having something playing in the background. I've been listening to more podcasts and audiobooks instead and it's been pretty easy to cut back.
Libby,libraries have lots of things....for now
I like Hoopla because of the name, but same thing.
I wish the creators would move. Vlogbrothers, MVG, MrSundayMovies
Move where? Vimeo?
Vimeo lays off ‘large portion’ of staff after Bending Spoons buyout
More options in the videohosting space would good.
