    I use a YouTube front end that doesn’t have a “feed” or algorithm based suggestions page. It only has a subscriptions page and the related videos side bar. I can still definitely go down rabbit holes, but they are often more focused and related to something I’m interested in, rather than devolving to slop.

      This is exactly the thing i did and it worked wonders. (using FOSS Grayjay)

        This has been my exit strategy. With no algorithm, I lose interest naturally and instead focus on…

        Well the important thing is that I’m not giving YouTube ad revenue.
