Do dnt headers count?

You see how often growing youtubers complain about more than 85% of their viewers are not subscribed to the channel, or how just some videos have more views than their main content?

I actually don’t watch a whole lot of YouTube anymore so I can’t really comment on this here.

The issue is that Invidious doesn’t have the algorithm Youtube provides to everyone,

But isn’t this what people are trying to avoid when it comes to digital privacy? User data being used in less algorithms?

Could you elaborate on why not?

The workaround

Quit using YouTube directly and proxy your request through an Invidious instance.

Your requests are mixed in with everyone else’s, ad’s are blocked and most importantly only 1 machine touches YouTube directly and that’s the server hosting Invidious.
