i've grown increasingly, increasingly tired of youtube lately. the exhausting shorts advertised everywhere, overwhelming thumbnails, sensory overload and just generally a really piss poor site. Is there anywhere someone like me can turn to?

Would be nice. We have decentralised replacements for Twitter and Reddit now we just need one for YouTube that’s beyond the reach of the corporate assholes. Imagine being able to swear within the first 30 seconds of a video and not get buried where it will never be seen.

hopefully with all the bullshit they've been testing out recently people get fed up like they did with Reddit and make a YouTube 2 themselves 🙏

Peertube is a YT alternative that's also part of the Fediversse. Might wanna try it out
