I use freetube, so that I only see videos from people I sub to. No ads is nice as well.
Huh? That's... still YouTube, just curated. We thought you had meant an entirely non-Google video platform; leaving YT completely is the goal. All I can think of is PeerTube, or the paid service Nebula.
By the way, ads are easy to defeat: use any Firefox-based browser (like Firefox or Waterfox) with AdNauseam, or NewPipe on Android. You don't need FreeTube for that (although I do also try to remember to use FreeTube anyway, haha).
A lot of the indie animators I follow aren't on Peertube, only youtube and usually patreon. I'd love to support them all, but it's not feasible on my salary.
My bad: I didn't see that you're not @Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone (the original parent commentator in this chain), whose video sources I'm now wondering about. Leaving YouTube itself, entirely, is the major hurdle for us all in this case.
