Maybe invidious or use freetube.
There is also grayjay, and while it works pretty fine I believe there where some controversies around the program even tho I don't know the reason.
Thanks! I'll look into them and the controversy.
The controversy is that the code is not fully open source, but it was originally labeled as FOSS.
Oh! That is a no go for me then. I only use open source software.
Doesn't those work like Piped, that you get recommendations based on the current video your viewing?
I was talking about the general recommendations that you get based on what you watch over time. :)
I understand, in Grayjay that is working as far as I know. It shows me videos based on my previously watched content. So that should work.
Cool. I'll check it out!
