Sadly no. And we’re not gonna see an alternative any time soon. Noone has the server capacity (or 18 years of community building). The only ones who could maybe build something to match their servers would be other similarly shitty companies anyway. Like Microsoft, Amazon or Facebook.
if you’re talking about alternative ui/ux, you could try Piped/Invidious instances. Usually I use piped.kavin.rocks or yewtu.be to visit youtube on desktop browser. It basically youtube without ads and other bloats, also privacy-friendly. Or as other stated, you could try NewPipe or Libretube on smartphone. Keep in mind that all of these alternatives wont provide you google login functionality. These apps only store your search history locally on your device. It takes a bit of time to get used to not get fed by recommendation algorithm and not doing any mindless scrolling
Is there a decent alternative to Youtube yet? It would make a killing if it had even a little bit better UX

Damn shame.
