Have any YouTube recommendations?

  >Have any YouTube recommendations? Yes. Don't use YouTube. Or if you feel you must, download (via yt-dlp[0] or similar) videos and watch them offline. [0] https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

    Totally, I agree; huzzah for yt-dlp and appropriate data retention. Still though - if I want to consume relatively digestable archaeological video content, where do I go?

      >Totally, I agree; huzzah for yt-dlp and appropriate data retention. Still though - if I want to consume relatively digestable archaeological video content, where do I go? A fair point. Given the current online media ecosystem, I don't have a good answer for you. :( From a longer-term perspective, high-speed symmetric consumer internet links can enable decent, distributed/decentralized content without rapacious scumbags like Alphabet. But it remains to be seen how long that might take to happen. Until then, (fortunately) there's yt-dlp and its ilk. Sorry, wish I could make a better suggestion.
