Yeah, what the fuck is the article talking about? I haven't seen an ad on YouTube in years.

Did u mean "tax for the poor and stupid"?

[–] maxalmonte14@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fortunately LibreTube and NewPipe exist 👍

[–] mortimer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Yeah. What ads?

I'd love to know their cost of storing all the YT videos and serving them.

On desktop: uBlock origin (Vivaldi or Firefox). On mobile: Newpipe and AdAway (VPN mode, or rooted phone).

Firefox + Ublock also work on mobile.

Still need a good strategy for blocking ads on my TV. Mostly watching YouTube through a Chromecast so I can control it from my phone

GrayJay seems to work for that.
