Hey all I’m not sure if this question makes any sense but it’s something I’ve been thinking about.

I use YouTube alternatives like FreeTube and NewPipe. But one thing I miss from YouTube is their recommendation algorithm. OK it’s not great and has been getting worse, but at least there are somewhat relevant videos on the home page.

Does anyone know of anything (third-party service, self-hosted, app, etc.) that can provide YouTube recommendations based on what I like?

One thing I’ve been using is FreeTube’s Most Popular tab. It’s like Trending on YouTube but only for your Invidious instance. It usually has good recommendations, but I think that’s only because my interests happen to align with those of other people who also use FreeTube. :)

Thanks for any ideas!
