Is that really Nebula's fault? YouTube, TikTok, etc. are full of garbage too.

I don't really know their arrangement with creators (one would hope creators get a bigger cut there, otherwise why leave YouTube?), but my favorite creators* have the same videos on both, just a little earlier on Nebula usually.

*Just engineering channels though, which is probably why they're not as spammy/shock-reaction-y.

Never used them.

The way they're marketing themselves I didn't think I would have to curate their content myself. How much do I need do I need to pay to not have to sift through brain-numbing clickbait diarrhea?

At that point you might as well just kill your time on YouTube. Plenty of good channels there too - if you can stand the stench of the heap of trash they're buried under.

Oh, I never thought of Nebula as a curation service, just a hosting service that the creators I like seem to prefer (who knows why, maybe they get paid more there or have some promotion with them?). But I eventually moved back to YouTube too, for unrelated reasons (auto captions etc.)

I don't think any video site these days can be easily "browsed" if you want to avoid the garbage :( It's all about picking and choosing specific channels/creators to follow and ignoring the crap... sadly.
