Not even speaking about all the ads in the default YouTube app without a subscription.

The app is basically useless in my opinion. It defaults to freaking 240p for every video. My phone is definitively not the problem, also not the Internet connection. Watching in Firefox on the same connection gives me normal expected quality.

This was better on some "feature phones" without touchscreen!!! YouTube app works and playback is in 720p / 1080p

And what would be the benefit over Revanced?

[-] SonnyVabitch@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Nothing, ~~I~~ this person I know of just had FF and adblock set up already for other reasons, so all ~~I~~ they had to do was stop the youtube app hijacking its own links.

No sponsor block in ff though?

[-] Awwab@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Works fine for me.

It works with the addon enabled, just like desktop firefox. But right now it's a bitch to manually install addons on the android version, so it's a lot of work. I just use newpipe-sponserblock. Or also LibreTube is also nice while also having sponserblock built in.

how do you install addons on firefox android? I use iceraven now.

[-] PainInTheAES@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

To install desktop add-ons you need to use nightly and create an add-on collection to sync. But sponsor block might have a mobile version that you can install from the settings section of the normal app.

TIL I'll have to check on those other clients too, thanks p

No need for side loading apps. So works on all phones. Phones that are remotely admin have this feature off.

Firefox can't load plugins on iPhones anyway. If you're on Android, and it's a personal device, ReVanced is a better experience.
