btw just so you know some people are gonna stop using youtube after august 12th to protest the anti-vpn laws in the uk. since they're one of the companies planning on complying with them
@bloodbathspite what about podcasts on apple podcasts? your local public media station's app may have some on-demand podcasts. also some local libraries offer free streaming documentaries and podcasts.

are there any good youtube alternatives out there tho? i need something to listen to while drawing when i don't feel like listening to music
@bloodbathspite you can use internet radio channels like Icecast or so, you can find good music there tho
@triiode i said when i *don't* feel like listening to music lol, i meant sites with stuff like longform videos about interesting topics or something
^yeah, i've only ever heard of Bitview, and i had an account until my video uploads stopped working for some reason
are freetube / other proxies or just downloading stuff from yewchube OK?
as in, pulling up a video on freetube, either watching on FT or getting a link with which to download as mp4 / MP3 for music
Dang I didn't even realise this protest was happening - I'll be keeping clear of YouTube for a while!

@bloodbathspite i use peertube & vanillo mainly. you could always watch youtube with a proxy/frontend like freetube
