lol. There are a couple of options that don't suck.

I started with freetube - https://freetubeapp.io/ - it's a decent cross platform client.

https://invidious.io is pretty cool

But I like an app, and since I'm in the Apple ecosystem I'm currently playing with Play on all my devices - https://apps.apple.com/au/app/play-save-videos-watch-later/id1596506190 It allows you to stack videos for later viewing, categorize them and then play them back via Invidious

I'm also looking at running my own Invidious server

I'll admit that I've started watching youtube videos via filtering anonymisers so they really have no idea what I'm watching ¯_(ツ)_/¯ makes little difference to me, probably makes a small difference to the content creators but I ain't watching no ads and I ain't giving Google tracking data

a question remain - while I think the requirement to engage to be counted as active will certainly increase engagement generally - will it lead to "quality" content and comments? not that I currently know exactly how you quantify quality
