Inb4 youtube is bad for a million other reasons. Yes I know, most of them are ameliorated by extremely heavy adblocking, that's not what this is about.

In the last couple days, youtube has completely forgotten how to format a basic grid layout. Look at those inconsistent gaps between thumbnails, look at those misaligned columns, what the fuck is going on here?

I stopped using it after they asked history to be on. For me now the page is empty. I just use freetube. Solid app. Just my subscriptions.

you can just deny the ask and still use subscriptions. but Freetube is pretty slick ngl so fair enough

It just says this there's no deny. I'm not gonna use the subscriptions there.

yeah you just, don't turn it back on, that page doesn't do anything it just doesn't give you a homepage with algorithmic recommendeds, you have to click on subscriptions to get to your subscriptions.

but freetube is superior so you got the right idea anyhow lmao. I'm one of those weird nerds who watches most of my youtube through youtube-dl (well, yt-dlp now)

I don't like the subscriptions shit anyway. I use ytdlp for a lot of things.
