They got rid of the Dislike button. Fine. They changed the Homepage to 2 ginormous thumbnails per row. WTF are they thinking? They doubled down and forced that change onto the Subscription page too when people started just using that instead. Now I’v noticed a LOT of videos posted from subscribed creators do not appear on the subscriptions page at all. Go to homepage? There it is plain as day. I’d complain (30second unskippable ad) about the (30second unskippable ad) annoying bombardment (30second unskippable ad) of advertising on (30second unskippable ad) the platform but (30second unskippable ad) I use Ublock.
There has to be some sort of competitor (not Twitch) that is a reasonable equivalent? I’m at my wits end here. It seems all Media Content online has become outright hostile to consumers and I want to go to war.
Nebula, it is a paid service, but I’m happy to pay for something that just works. There’s a lot of smart creators there as well
Same. A lot of science and history YouTubers post there. And there’s a lot of early releases and exclusives like Real Engineering’s amazing D-day series. Pretty inexpensive and totally worth it
Oh, there’s also Floatplane with basically the same model. I don’t have that one, but I think it’s mainly tech YouTubers currently
