Privacy respecting alternative to Youtube (feddit.nl)

I need a more privacy-oriented alternative to Youtube. I have try Odysee, which open-source but it has to do with tokens and that seems to me like crypto, which I don't like. I have heard about Newpipe but this only for Android. Can you recommend me one that is also for the web and optionally open-source?

Sorry for bad english

I believe that Odysee and LBRY (the blockchain-based back end technology Odysee sprung from and draws on) are separate companies with different people running them.

You don't have to touch crypto or use any crypto features to use Odysee, so I'd still suggest it as a platform in the toolbelt in addition to a lot of the other great recommendations you've already gotten here in other replies.
