I clearly need to up my adblock game. But do y'all also use PeerTube, Nebula, Curiosity Stream? Happy to vote with dollars if there's a good candidate.
I've been using grayjay lately and when it needs to play an unskipable add you just get a nice looking blank screen to look at instead.
My issue with those sites is that since they're not direct mirrors, they don't have a dedicated archive. And since archive.org has stopped saving youtube videos, that could lead to a lot of lost media. It's a cultural cornerstone that's been around for nearly two decades. If I can't access 15 year old YGOTAS videos then it's just not a viable replacement to me lol
Nebula is pretty good and I'm happy to support creators making quality content.
UBlock Origin on Firefox murders all YouTube ads. Works great. Would recommend.
