I mean I only when from an iphone fanboy to a google pixel to deGoogle. I'm on graphene and don't have a google account. Been using Grayjay for yt and imported my subscriptions from there. Mail I'm using proton. I hope in the future, I can completely degoogle and not use youtube at all. A true alternative like peertube, but not too many people are on that.

I agree about peertube. I'm lucky that my niche has some creators with a peertube instance at urbanists.video (like c/fuckcars) for me to watch. I check that before youtube now and it cuts my YouTube usage by 5-15%.

I know we're off topic, but do you have call recording on Graphene? Also, how does the adblocker work. I find most adblockers use the VPN to create a loopback to listen on. I use a VPN frequently, so that interface isn't available and I block ads via hostfile.

I generally find that peertube lacks much content but I've found a few channels that I am actually interested it. I find that the video quality is usually higher than what youtube gives me, so I use peertube for the few videos a month I can.

Also, I'm replying from a linux phone running postmarketos, a pixel 3a specifically.
