YouTube patched via ReVanced, then browse without login.
On desktop, YouTube with uBlock, then browse without login.
-
archive.org videos section
-
Youtube via RSS feeds.
-
How do you do that?
-
-
Freetube if you want to watch YouTube without algorithms.
-
I feel like we need to get away from Gulag's servers in general tho. They're closing in on the likes of Freetube.
-
Seconded. You subscribe to channels you like, and your feed is just the newest videos first. Plus built in sponser block.
-
-
Pretty much just Peertube.
-
I just use YouTube and only watch my subscribed channels. I don't bother with recommendations
-
Use the NewPipe app or one of its forks. It shows only videos from your subscriptions.
-
This. It's gone down for a few days here or there. But then updates and it's all good. You can even watch shorts from the creators, although it's like watching a short video (can't scroll through them in succession as far as I know).

You can subscribe to youtube channels with rss, that way you don't have to log in a d you have a chronological list of uploads of channels you've chosen.
-
I found freetube helpful. You can subscribe to Channels directly in freetube. I am a bit unsure if it stops the algorythm completely.
-
Yeah, I thought of getting into grayjay instead, but the android app seems very unstable and slow for me, maybe I'll try tweaking ReVanced for a similar result instead.
-
You could just hide the home tab and default to the subscriptions. And I think you can also hide recomendations but Im not sure about that.

Check out the pinned posts at !peertube@lemmy.wtf for a list of PeerTube providers and content creators to follow.

Odysee

Grayjay on Android. Ad-free, no algo, and no shorts. There's a section that shows you like the top 10 hottest videos on the platform, but in the subscriptions tab it has all the latest from who you are subbed to.
-
There aren't any because all ways of displaying any data at all involve an "algorithm". There are no "algorithm-free alternatives" to anything at all except not using computers at all.
Maybe think about what you're actually trying to ask, then ask that question again.
-
With New pipe I only see the channels I subscribe to. There's no home page, I just go to the list of channels and check if they have any new content.
I don't see how an algorithm comes into play when I'm manually subscribing and going through the list.

While you may be right, it’s irrelevant if you say it with such a tone. Additionally, it’s quite clear OP means predatory forms of algorithms.
