I was paying for a whole family (premium). But I will not pay and send money to a fascist state. We've cancelled all our us based services.
I never paid and have been using NewPipe for the past 6+ years.

Unless we have some serious alternatives, that won't happen anytime soon
Video hosting is really expensive. Every service running for free will eventually enshitify and turn out similar, because there's no such thing as free massive servers
Peertube has already delivered the sustainable model: creators host their own videos and viewers assist distribution.

What options?
Where can I find stuff about fixing my motorcycle? Oceanliners? Deep Space documentaries? Fixing dieselinjectors in my car etc?one option
hell of a lot less censorship, and better video quality there as well.

I forgot about dm. I used to watch dm way more than yt back in the day. Thanks for the reminder!

All they need that I see is missing, is a way to discover / search everyone from any instance. Like, a consolidated / federated search.

Seems like its already happening.

Yeah, for at least 6 months.

Not precisely what you're after but

Now you'll actually get a pop-up claiming "click here to find out why" in regards to the slowness.

I'll never go there. Paid is a no way situation.
So you prefer ad supported content?

Who pays for the servers? Because if even big platforms like Signal sometimes struggle to pay the bills, in part because they spend a lot on their servers, then it’ll be dozens of times worse with video hosting

I look up and view similar topics to you and never use YouTube for them.

"I want endless curated content for FREE! NO ADS. NO PAY. ONLY CONTENT."
This guy, probably.
Probably also thinks the minimum wage is theft.

Why be an asshole? Yes I like free I also make things for free. Not everything has to cost.
For ongoing series I like I support directly, like anyone else. Not the platform.
But to charge up front for who knows what? Nope.

Content creators. It's hard to host everyone's videos, and it benefits monopolists to imply that doing so is necessary, as it prevents new entrants. It's not nearly as hard to host your own server (or pay for it to be hosted). It becomes harder when you suddenly become popular, a situation which Peertube explicitly compensates for by sharing the distribution effort between viewers, which scales with popularity.
Signal makes it's own bed like YouTube by being a single centralised server for everyone. Nobody ever asks "who pays for the servers" when it comes to Matrix or XMPP

so you'd pay if there was a free trial?

Uh, it's called a "library".

You clearly have absolutely no idea what infrastructure costs to run.

Reddit and Discord killed that, sorry, the Internet you're referring to is dying and almost dead.
