So i watch youtube a lot and i am now using invidious, i can subscribe to all my previous channels but what i am missing a lot is the recommendation algorithm, like it would show me different videos based on my interests etc and finding new content would be easy.

But this would also mean my data would be sold to companies.

Is there something similar for these youtube frontends which can recommend me stuff without sacrificing my privacy?

    Block tube extension has been great. I found that I didn’t need to block that many channels to start having content show up that isn’t from the big YouTube channels. For example tech and game searches heavily promote big channels and dominate the first several pages of search results, and suppress little ones. But, then block some of them, and suddenly it’s more of the regular small YouTube channels over the YouTube as a business channels.
