Please download and archive your favorite channels and videos!

Host them yourself to watch them locally.

Especially do this for educational material, share it wide and far!

We are entering a very dark age of techno-dystopia, we need to fight it with everything we have. Pirate, seed, screen-record, download, archive, share, never give up.

I also recommend NewPipe for Android. It lets you download in multiple formats and shows comments in a mobile format (you can get it through the F-Droid store or from github.)

NewPipe

FreeTube for Windows. Finally stable, download options, subs, history, ex-/importable data, locally, no ads of course. It's awesome!

Next to KDEconnect, I freaking love Freetube. Just a nice application

Btw FreeTube is not just available for Windows, it also works perfectly on Linux and macOS
