FreeTube is a YouTube client for Windows, Mac, and Linux built around using YouTube more privately. You can enjoy your favorite content and creators without your habits being tracked. All of your user data is stored locally and never sent or published to the internet. FreeTube grabs data by scraping the information it needs (with either local methods or by optionally utilizing the Invidious API).
Oh no (continues to watch on freetube) anyway....
Revanced Extended ftw!
What is freetube? (Sorry for the stupid question)
It also integrates Sponsorblock!
Give it a go, it really is quite good
edit: hey, you're the guy I responded to about polls. lemmy feels like a small village sometimes
One of many different "third party frontends" for YouTube which, amongst other things, cut out ads and avoid performance throttling.
Personally I use one called NewPipe, and previously one called LibreTube. There are others too.
