it is actually how the exploit was found

  • Here's an extension which turns YouTube into an Invidious-like site, removing all addicting elements.
  • If you're using Linux, I wrote the youtube-tui a few years back, very similar to the extension where you get nothing but the search bar and subscriptions.

someone rebooted the project as youtube revanced, someone was even kind enough to build all the apks and post them on github (idk if they are safe, but i use them anyways)

im on linux so i use bind a command to a shortcut, like firefox https://lemmy.ml

u can probably do similar things on windows

i did it, turns out all i need to do was to paste in the full script and it will do the timings automatically, sweet.

yeah but its not the same, sure you could mod your router or use a pihole to get adblocking, but it is not the same convenience as extensions, and by far ublock origin is the best adblocker no arguments raised.

moreover companies can't really do much when they are completely reliant on chromium, and they can't do much except pulling PR stunts and try to sound like they are doing something while all they're doing is to merge commits from upstream chromium once in a while

one example is the "we will continue to support v2" stunt by brave, which is not possible as they have 0 experience maintaining a browser, also vivaldi is absolutely proprietary

just realised something, if my understanding is correct, MV3 also banned remotely hosted content, with a publish delay up to 2 weeks google (specifically youtube) can easily break uBO lite if they want to, i dont know if that is how uBO lite works, or if the rules will only be enforced after June, but if it is true uBO lite is not gonna live long either
