I recently got my (via VPN) YouTube subscription cancelled and now I am wondering, if YouTube videos are findable in the usenet or using torrent tracker.

Does anyone already have experience with this? I block ads, but it seems not like a sustainable solution.

      The whole downside is that not everyone is a data horder with space for videos

      Some media players allows for streaming directly using yt-dlp, e.g.;

      mpv <youtube url>

      Will use yt-dlp if installed

        +1 to this but also, If you’re on Linux, I’d recommend Freetube.

        It’s on Flathub and allows you to use SponsorBlock.
