    I wonder which will happen first: I’ll quit watching youtube because the platform becomes too much of a pain in the ass for me to bother with, or I’ll quit watching youtube because of how difficult it is to find content I actually want to watch.

      I’ve got a few Patreon shows that host video content on YouTube, but because they’re directly linked and not monetized through YouTube they’re pretty friendly to visit.

      I do need a better way to find streamable music. YouTube Music has been a miserable experience, but it has the largest library.

        I found YTM to have more niche music selections vs Spotify.

        You could always try plexamp if you want to self-host.

          Functionally it works (barring technical difficulties)

          But it means building up a large personal library, when what I’d prefer is a browsable public music library.
