The only issue I have with freetube is that I sometimes like to click on the recommended videos on YouTube's front page. If I switch to freetube entirely, I'll lose that. But if uBlock doesn't continue to work I will make the switch and the YouTubers I wouldn't normally see just won't get my views any longer.

I never thought of that aspect as I've never used them. My subscription list is so long, I don't have the time to watch the videos I'm subbed to, much less any bonus content. I wonder how many people use that feature.
