if the day comes where ublock origin stops working on youtube, i'll simply stop watching youtube. plenty of quality art (stark contrast to youtube) out there to fill that consumption void
i can always start checking things off on my anime list.
youtube is just procrastination on my part. go ahead, make me stop using it.
I've already started. Most of my YT viewing was from the smart TV app, and since I can't block ads from there I simply don't use it anymore. It's still OK on PC, and on mobile I use Grayjay. On my TV, I just watch shows and anime nowadays instead.
If you have an Android-based smart TV (or a device that runs Android connected to your TV), you can use SmartTube. It blocks ads, supports SponsorBlock, and casting from your phone, among other things.
Oh, thanks! I will look into this.
Then why do you watch YT at all?
you're right, but also i stick to the few channels that post decent content and then never touch anything outside of that
I'm starting to think it might be finally time to look into CuriosityStream and Nebula
