You can use many places:

Bitchute - P2P based YouTube alternative. Requires JavaScript, so may as well be made by NSA. Most of the content are boogaloo tier nothingburgers.

PeerTube - P2P based YouTube alternative #2. Requires JavaScript.

LBRY/Odysee - Blockchain based YouTube alternative. Requires JavaScript. You might actually find a few popular YouTube channels here. Same critical remark about bitchute can be found here.

Librarian - Alternative frontend for LBRY and Odysee. Where you can host your own damn videos.

Invidious - YouTube front-end made by Omar Rothstein released under the AGPL, better than using plain YouTube.

NewPipe - Not an alternative to YouTube, but a client/frontend for Android, it doesn't use Google's services or allow you to log in.

Fouad YT - Watch YouTube videos without getting ads.

VidLii - An (Russian Honey Pot) alternative that seeks to re-create the atmosphere of old YouTube. As you'd expect, it's full of pedos.

Then, piratebay unless your ISP dings you

Then private torrent or torrent over tor

There might be a video store in your area you are unaware of. Peruse the vhs section.

Don't bother downloading torrents for a movie you might watch once.
this site has many free streams, choose the ones with no ads or popups. the first 6 sites.

I stream them on my phone then push to the TV via airplay, no need to download anything.

Arr suite of tools if you are technically oriented.

Get something like Utorrent and then you can download them all free from thepiratebay.org

iptorrents . com

You'll need an invite.

If you are saying "torrent no safe", this is a private tracker.
Only use private trackers. A good one will force you to seed to remain active.

This is exactly why I would open a video rental store in town assuming I could find someone willing to run it full time.

It’s not a money issue but a time issue.

The biggest ptoblrmnis discovering films worth seeing.

I have not seen a dingle movie made in 2025 and have run out of films made prior that i think are worth watching.
