    As long as you are still sourcing the content from youtube, you’re not really de-googled.

      Sure, but with the critical mass of videos on Youtube, and the sheer impossibility of consensually mirroring them all on another platform, accessing YT videos with Invidious or Newpipe is at least safer than wading unprotected onto Google’s platforms.

    I am very confused. Wasn’t Linus the one that said that if you watch YouTube videos from creators using adblockers is like pirating their content? I didn’t watch the video because I can’t stand LTT but I am genuinely confused. Did he change his mind?

      I think if was him he changes that a long time ago, they also have a video about pi-hole.

      Edit: Is him yes, he says that in the video around the 14 minute mark.
