There are also lots of smaller video platforms built by youtubers. They publish advertiser friendly (censored) videos on YT, but put the real versions on their own platform. This way, fans can support their favorite channels, and get to see videos that are too cool for YT.
Here are my privacy/security tips roughly in the order of importance.
Unique password that have upper case, lower case, numbers and special characters. Also, most passwords are at least 16 characters long.
NextDNS on my mobile devices for ad blocking and privacy.
Linux on my laptop + Firefox and uBock Origin.
No Whatsapp, or Telegram. I prefer to use Signal. If someone insists on using some spyware messenger, I’ll just SMS them.
No Meta, Xitter or other major platforms allowed. When using social media, I don’t share anything too personal. Also, no photos of me or anyone I know.
