I'd love to see a plan where you just pay to rid of the ads, but YouTube is past YouTube, they would rather everyone pay YouTube premium as is.

It's optimal to them. You just don't understand Youtube's perspective of it yet. And then it's unoptimal for them when you watch with the adblocker.

That's a way to look at, but i'l personally still be using Peertube. instead of 3rd party YouTube apps.

in the short term they work, but YouTube can cut those 3rd party apps access at any time for any reason. Use Peertube for the better long term.

Yeah be like me and just use Peertube, I don't even notice this stuff untill people complain about it haha.

They do have a good overall ui, but the trust in them is less then it was before. Even if they did stop doing partnerships with Microsoft they also stopped keeping their users out of the filter bubble, meaning they filter search resualts out, while before they use to claim they didn't do that.

Kinda but not quite, better hope them search resualts are comparable to Google's, while if I just change sign up on a new email account, and just change my email on all my accounts then boom. Oh the interface might lack some (tbh) unneeded features. If emails send and you can respond then what are you missing exactly? Nothing too major.

I just get why you would need such an advance interface for a simple emailing service where you just send and respond to emails. If the emails send, shouldn't the be enough? It's not like you need a crazy search API like Google's to even come close to comparison with them. The email experience really isn't impacted that badly. unless i'm missing something here.

Protonmail. or tutanota are some of the best alternatives.

This exists already, it's called Searxng. The instances don't federate with each other necessarily but rather with actual search engines. But each instance of searxng is hosted by a different person. and so you might notice different resaults on one server vs the next. https://searx.space/
