Need help with using FreeTube.
So far I am really liking FreeTune as an alternative to UBO. However, my family really hates it. One of the reasons for this is because it doesn't have a recommended vidoes section. Is it possible to download an addon for that, or is there an alternative to FreeTube that works more like YouTune?
Another thing that I can't seem to find a solution for is that when you use an external player from FreeTube, some age restricted videos won't play on the external player. Is there a solution for this?
Any help is appreciated, thanks for reading.

They have to turn on the brain, gather a list of their favorite creators, subscribe in freetube, then it can have an home page with "recommended" videos
The lack of the algorithm is exactly why I like freetube
Yeah I get that but they are unwilling to make the effort.
I really don't get why some people always want something recommended to them. Whatever happened to finding out things that you like?
I find stuff I like via the algorithm very often. Subscriptions cover channels that I want to see every upload of, but that doesn't cover channels I don't yet know about or channels only have a percentage of videos interesting to me. I use the algorithm mainly for finding content that I wouldn't have discovered otherwise, and I can tell the algorithm knows to suggest me videos like that (low view/sub count videos show up for me way more than normal).
You could simply find stuffs using the good old way. Searching with keyword. Algorithms also won't expands your interests
