They have to turn on the brain, gather a list of their favorite creators, subscribe in freetube, then it can have an home page with "recommended" videos
The lack of the algorithm is exactly why I like freetube

Yeah I get that but they are unwilling to make the effort.
Unfortunately that’s the point of FreeTube precisely, that’s why it uses libre instances like Piped or Invidious, I think what you mention is impossible.
The closest thing you can use is ReVanced, which is Youtube but without ads, keeping the analytics and recommendations.
That makes sense. I guess my family will have to keep blocking the annoying youtube popup with ubo.
There is an app created by Louis Rossman which is called "Grayjay" you can give it a try. It has adblock on videos and show recommended if you signed in, and many more features
Grayjay is by FUTO. Louis Rossman just shills for them.

Maybe your family would accept ads to get YouTube the way they like?
I just found out that UBO fixed it, but who knows how long that will last.
