Yeah, honestly that’s the main blocker for me. For all of the hate it gets, I had the YouTube algorithm pretty well-tuned to what I liked.

Wish there was something like freetube that would still preserve views/ suggestions.

    I have had free tube very loosely recommend me some related videos, but nothing like the full feed yet.

    I wonder if they could somehow make a section of like “videos that are not from your subs, but would be recommended under your subs videos” to explore other creators with similar content.

    No idea if you can scrape that kinda info from YouTube without all the account stuff though.
