Rarely I have issues with both brave and newpipe but it's almost always with an outdated version that's no longer effective because of updates to youtube.

I also frequently use yt-dlp but that also needs to be up to date.

Youtube is the only mainstream social media I've ever cared about. Some of the channels I watch have started posting to odysee too but many still only exist on youtube. Hopefully one day the fediverse is where everyone worth following ends up, it's cozy here because of admins like graf. 

 nostr will replace jewtube, elon is going to start sweating on them heavily too 

 graf is good, he will warm to nostr

many youtubers have moved to rumble because of censorship 

 Rumble censors stuff just as much as Youtube. 

 yep they are run by a jew but the diversification weakens youtube

eventually we have a p2p vid platform and just take everything from them all, it wins because  like streaming services are too numerous and cost
 

 youtube does censor more than rumble
