Going to drop this here for others who haven't heard of it https://invidious.io/ Now, how do we fix this? YouTube's ad model sucks. Their algorithm sucks. Their front page sucks.

Just get some popular streamers/channels to do a review/let's play and if they like it you'll get tons of free exposure.
