I have to create one for personal reasons. I know it’s inherently un-private, but how can I maximize privacy while creating & using it without running into problems?

Isn’t it possible to follow the same people on YT shorts or something where you have more control over your privacy?

I’m not very familiar with how YouTube works now, do they have hashtags or something similar to find people with the fashion I like? It’s been so long since I’ve used insta, I don’t remember who I followed.

Well afaik, most of the creators put their stuff up on shorts as well. And on YT you’ve the freedom of signing up with whatever email, using a VPN and adblocking services. Or you could totally use the popular frontends as well. And I’ve seen people use hashtags in shorts. I personally don’t use hashtags much so I don’t know if you’ll experience the same thing.
