Seriously, browsing the internet without an adblocker is a horrible experience. So Firefox with ublock origin is my go to.

That explains why I like Mastodon! Painfully earnest individual here.

Talking about autocorrect weirdnesses, my keyboard (SwiftKey) seems to have a strange fascination with apostrophe s. Whenever I type a plural version of a word which is ending in s, it will autocorrect to apostrophe s!

Same here. I use it on all my devices and I am so used to it, that I can't use another keyboard. Also, for me autocorrect on SwiftKey is way better than on gboard.

+1 for Feeder someone suggested below.

And when websites demand I turn off the adblocker, I just close it.

Yes, I read the instructions for patching the app.

Fact is, I am lazy. Reading the long list of things to do to patch the app and to keep it updated put me off so I didn't try.

Honestly, setting up revanced seems a little too much work to me. So I use newpipe which I find much easier to set up.

Exactly! Can't understand how do so many people tolerate ads.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thing is most people are unaware of the harmful nature of ads and don't care to do anything to block them.

I had been watching youtube on my phone using ublock origin on Firefox, but since youtube started this shit I have shifted permanently to newpipe.
