Stop building garbage on top of Google and Big Tech. We need open-source anti-censorship privacy-respecting alternatives, if your app site or whatever requires Youtube then this is dead on arrival, not sorry.
what steps are you taking to replace YouTube, personally? Do you have a GitHub?

Have fun wasting time building on top of Google.

Have fun bitching and doing nothing to improve the situation.
You can build.
You can buy.
You can invest.
You can bitch.
And as the great Bill Parcells once said: You are what you do.

I'm doing something, i'm giving him my feedback. We need talented minds like him to come up with REAL YouTube alternatives. What he is doing right now is building on top of Google... seems like a total waste of his skills and time.

No you're just being a miserable dick.
There is a respectful way to give the same feedback.
You're sitting back and armchair quarterbacking and discouraging people that are trying to learn and build. There is absolutely a path for this project to decouple from YouTube over time. He's probably one guy that's self funded or barely funded going against one of the biggest corporations on the planet. Show some grace.
Give your time talent or treasure or at least be respectful or GFY.
