I've noticed YouTube specifically has become more addictive, I never used to be one to sit and scroll for long durations before but I often catch myself spending way too long on shorts now

Even people or older generations seem to be getting sucked in nowadays

      Have not used FreeTube myself.
      However it appears to be reputable / decent.

      • It's source is open: https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube
      • It's mentioned in the Invidious repo: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious#projects-using-invidious

      Rule of thumb:

      • Steer clear of proprietary / closed source software
      • Always aim to use open source software if possible
