    I have no less than a dozen plugins in my browser to make the Internet usable. More than half is just for YouTube.

      Took me some time to get used to, but I deactivated all the YouTube plugins and now use Freetube an my desktop/laptop.

        Freetube is great. I just wish the UI was better about bookmarking playlists and there was some way to sync my progress across devices, including Android

          Have you tried the GrayJay app? I’ve been using it to cast Twitch and youtube to my TV, Download videos, and its got polycentric which is some kind of alternative to youtubes comments for videos

            That sounds cool! Can I Sync playlist watch history between Linux, Windows, and android?

              I’m not sure, but you can login to youtube from the plugins and YouTube can sync the watch history its under sources > YouTube > provide YouTube activity.

              There’s no desktop app yet as of now.
