When there is a will there’s a way. They underestimate what people on the interwebs are willing to do to watch bad videos without being bothered by even abysmally crappier ads 🤡

I added it to the list 😀 thanks !

Nice catch, I edited the post. Thank you ! 👍

I feel like there was an unwritten agreement between extension developers and Google/Youtube. Youtube allowed ad-blocking for those who wanted it, and in exchange, ad-blockers didn’t hide that users were blocking ads. By doing this, Youtube would break this agreement. I think there will always be a way around it, but currently, as it’s still working, no alternative that I know of has been developed.

Thank you for the link. It works great! Now I have the perfect YouTube with Ublock Origin + Sponsor Block + Dearrow + Return Youtube Dislike. It’s crazy how many extensions you need to add to make YouTube bearable… it’s really time for a good competitor to take its place !

Hum I don’t know why but feels like a step backwards for Europe in regards to privacy. The comment about Meta viewing this positively doesn’t smell good …

They should just migrate to other platforms or join us. I don’t understand why would they stay on a website hostile to its users like this. They want to protest on the same platform that is the source of the problem…
