Is YouTube actively trying to make their platform as unusable as possible?

In case you can’t zoom the YouTube definition of ‘latest’, is any time in the last few years.

My video suggestions are also 50% text posts now for some reason.

    Really have to make uBlock work to keep it sane nowadays. Best to just ditch it for any alternate frontend.

    Me, I just loaded all my subs into an RSS reader and now I watch it all through mpv. Wouldn’t recommend, but one of the best decisions i’ve ever made.

      I use Brave browser which has been more consistent than ABP/uBlock for ad blocking without glitches, but I’m thinking I need a new front end. I’m actually considering paying for Premium, but I have no faith that the UI won’t still be terrible.

      We have Grayjay on an android tablet which is brilliant, I’m hoping a windows and iOS version comes out soon.
