I noticed my consumption has decased quite a bit. I would visit regularly to watch content from few channels. I would probably still visit every so often to watch the new videos. But the experience has become more deliberate and conscious. I go to YouTube because I want to go and watch something specific. Mindlessly browsing and watching additional content is harder.

This is good progress from Google to get off their platform :)

    I think that they dont use the Api is the reason why it works. Maybe they use RSS too, Freetube does that as Fallback.

    If Google implements WEI we are fucked. And they could somehow bind an ad server to the content, only it the server is used, content is loaded
