Need help with using FreeTube. (lemm.ee)

So far I am really liking FreeTune as an alternative to UBO. However, my family really hates it. One of the reasons for this is because it doesn't have a recommended vidoes section. Is it possible to download an addon for that, or is there an alternative to FreeTube that works more like YouTune?

Another thing that I can't seem to find a solution for is that when you use an external player from FreeTube, some age restricted videos won't play on the external player. Is there a solution for this?

Any help is appreciated, thanks for reading.

You could set up a redirect (using the redirector extension) that redirects a YouTune video to freetube/invidious/whatever but still allows you to browse the YouTune homepage.

(Use the pattern https://youtube.com/watch?v=*)

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

https://piped.video/watch?v=

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Lol, good bot

Sure but then the recommendations would be based on a snapshot of my watch history and would not evolve further, which kind of defeats the purpose
