    I’m getting the feeling that within the next five years I’m going to be abandoning YouTube and just living without video content going forward.

      Check out PeerTube.

      Smart content creators have been setting up websites, Patreons, merchandise shops, and all they need to jump ship when YouTube finally capsizes. The likely/easy/inexpensive alternative for content creators, is PeerTube.

      I’m old enough to remember when none of this stuff existed. I have a threshold Beyond which I simply stop using the service.

      I’m actually pretty close to my lifestyle from before 1995. I don’t have any cable I have basic internet I don’t do any of the Music Services. Video-wise I only have Prime and any free services I can get on Chromecast for TV. I’m getting close to my threshold with prime, as the annual fee is getting real high.

      I’m already starting to lose interest in most YouTube channels. It’s not so bad here, really. I get to experience reality more.
