They can’t force you to stay in this shithole.

Not yet, you mean.

For desktop I use the FreeTube client. For mobile, there's various options line NewPipe and Revanced. But these are all Android Only.

20% is a far cry from what it used to be, and it also depends on your use case.

I'm spend my time online 60% on lemmy, 30% on YouTube, and 10% elsewhere.

Pihole was once a good adblocker, but as more and more websites realize ads being served from an external domain are easily blocked, they too push their ads through their own domain.

Pihole is still good for some pages, but mostly, its useless as an adblocker.

I'm sure there are some selfhosted options for file sharing.

So this is how it will start.

First it will be a back and forth war of Anti-adblockers vs Adblockers

Then when the Anti-Adblockers start to lose, which they will, then they'll come crying to various governments with massic PAC campaigns among other insane garbage about how "Adblockers are Piracy!" and that they need to be banned.

This will not end well.

Leaving google isn't hard.

Leaving YouTube specifically, however... Well, it's been getting easier as content seems to be less and less frequent or quality.

I really wish the Linux Phone was more usable.
