What are anons on /g/ doing about ad's on youtube?
When browser watching uBlock seems to catch some of the ads, but its aids for tv or phone sometimes
>>
New pipe still works, grayjay looks like a good option.
Just got to learn not to consume media like a baby bird waiting for youtube to cram bullshit down your throat.

Literally just download the videos and serve them from your own hardware

I simply don't use youtube. If I need to play a youtube video for some reason, I just feed the url into mpv, which streams it through yt-dlp. Can't remember the last time I went to youtube's site and I've never installed its app.
>>

may be you should use firefox instead of a chromium fork as your default browser, faggot!

i vpn to argentina and get youtube premium for like a dollar, it's the only sub based shit i have
>>
>>96086422
I just stopped watching youtube desu. I should thank them for the change really, more free time
>>
>>96086422
for phone I use the revanced apk. it's the normal youtube app but no ads. it even shows approximate dislikes and skips sponsored segments
>>
I have to purchase youtube premium so that I can listen to old radio shows with the app closed.
>>

use revanced you can turn off your screen with it too for freeeeeee

uBlock Origin still works on Firefox for me, I have not once seen the detected adblock warning yet. When it starts happening I don't know I'll probably just use mpv or freetube if not switch browsers

I use Pipe Viewer, there is a GTK version and a CLI version. Both are great.
You can use the video player of your choice, and subscribe to channels through RSS.

On a phone?
Watch the video on Firefox browser and turn the webpage in desktop mode.

I just deal with it. Or if I have a bunch of stuff lined up to watch (ie subscriptions.) I just download them all and play locally
>>
>>96086422
If you're tired of your hack apps breaking all the time you gotta get premium and should also use the sponsorblock extention
>>

same for me, and i watch a shitload of youtube

>PAY UP
No thanks. Updating Revanced every 5-6 months when jewtube finally pushes an update trying to break it on purpose is well worth waving hundreds of dollars and allowing the stink of paying real money for media on my soul.
>>
Right now it's pretty much just an endless mad race between UBO's guys and Youtube's pajeets to outpace each other. Every time Youtube bypasses UBO, UBO updates filters, rinse and repeat until one or the other gives up. The problem is that Youtube has a nearly endless supply of pajeets.
>>
I use YouTube Premium since I'm not poor. It also comes with YouTube Music so it also replaced my Spotify subscription

>>96086790
how does that mean that? You need to download the video anyway, do you think streaming is magic pixie dust? It is just a marketing term for downloading so npcs fork over their bags. If anything, downloading only the video data itself is faster by saving on bandwidth for a one time cost of setting up things
>>
>>96090892
lol no, youtube is competing in the throwaway entertainment market, if UBO pushes the bar high enough yt continue to collapse
>>
bump
>>
i assume if you want to watch something on TV you are going to watch something long, in that case why not just download it? on phone just use PipePipe or NewPipe x Sponsorblock
>>

im so sorry, anon. I see your problem now.
>>
>>96090892
no amount of pajeets hastily pushing software changes can stop a simple css filter list, quickly and easily updated by millions at once. this is a war youtube will not win unless they shut their own site down, and even tho YT is already bleeding money I dont think those warty Jewgle managers have the schutzpah to do that even for a day.
>>
off-topic question, but dont wanna open another thread just because Im a tech illiterate;
youtube now enforced the shitty curved corners on videos on desktop. How do i get rid of it? I do have Violentmonkey installed, and Im willing to install some other crap. I assume I need some custom CSS script for it?
>>
For some reason, for the first time in years I actually got an ad. Do I have malware or is Youtube actually bypassing the adblock?
>>
>>96093981
youtube bought a newer, healthier cat. the mouse has been forced to run faster, sometimes it isn't fast enough. it'll need some time to adapt to its new threat.

Has anyone else been having the problem where if you leave a youtube tab for a while and go back to it, after hitting play again it will reload the page (sometimes where you were at and sometimes back to the start) and then reloads it a second time? Its very annoying.
>>
What doesn’t make sense to me is we can use download services and programs without fear of downloading an advertisement, but we can’t view videos without seeing ads?
>>
>>96095146
Shhhh. They let it happen because most dont both to look into it or want to bother with that.
>>
>>96095088
>My "tv" is plugged into my pc and I use it as a monitor
why not just buy a monitor
>>
>>96095381
Because (s)he uses it in the same manner as a television in a living room, they just don’t own their own home and haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing it, so they view it from their bed or some stupid close distance instead
>>
>>96086422
vanced or libretube or revanced or newpipe or newpipe x sponsorblock or just use browser with invidious.
>>
>>96095132
has been a thing for months if not years
>>
how the FUCK do i get the date of the video to appear in search results and on the video page itself
>>
>>96088944
Get Orion browser and uBO extension. Never see any single ads on YouTube.
