My Firefox and Ublock extension must be living under a rock then because i don’t see any ads.
Chromium based browsers, (Chrome, Edge) are blocking ad blockers.
Firefox is NOT.
Also, Chrome is not a browser, it is an advertising tracking piece of software that surveils your every click. In the ‘olden’ days, this was called spyware. It’s a piece of software that exploits it’s users. It, like spyware, used to be bundled with all kind of other programs. Does anyone remember the line, “Also install Chrome Browser” when you installed other software?
Have a better life, install Firefox and uBlock Origin.
Also Fuck Brave, they are liars.Claiming Chtome to not be a browser is needlessly hyperbolic.
It’s a spyware browser.
Besides my poìnt
i will print that comment out and glue it to every bus stop in a 50mile radius
What did Brave do?
Iirc they are also spyware and I recall something abt the token being built into the browser tho I’m not entirely sure what
you use youtube with adblock because it is a great repository of information without having to deal with ads
i use youtube with adblock because it costs google money
we are not the same
At this point - unless there’s a very good reason - I just don’t interact with YouTube’s site or app anymore.
I hope YouTube pulls a Reddit, and federated video services get the same bump. Creators can plug NordVPN, Brilliant, and Wix just as well on PeerTube, and we won’t have to watch dumbass political ads anymore.
I don’t have experience with any of those, YouTube is still ad free for me luckily, but how plausible would a completely peer hosted video streaming service be? Like TOR based or something like that where it’s the collective of all the users hosting.
It’s not just plausible, it already exists. See joinpeertube.org . There are more than 1000 instances already. Just need more content creators (some are already dual-posting, or migrated entirely).
There’s also LBRY, but it operates on some goofy-ass crypto scheme, so I assume it will fail.
