Commenting to save for later
/me Sad no save KBin noises
kbin seems like a great idea but the execution is meh. There are so many unnecessary things going on but simple things like collapsible comments and bookmarks are missing. You have to go to a post to view the links being posted. The interface also leaves a 2000s forum design vibes, with the random threads, users, communities in the sidebar. That's just wasting resources. Microblogs are included from mastodon, but if you want to microblog from with, they become threads.
Lemmy has come a long way, however kbin doesn't seem like it's changing all that much. I know it's still in beta, so I keep an eye out. Hopefully, it'll be more customizable in the future.
watched a free movie on yt for the first time in a couple months last thursday. i knew about the new war on adblockers, so i had updated ublock origin's filter list cache first.
worked fine no ads, even got 1080p, which i rarely ever see for the 'legit' mainstream tv shows and movies they have.
even got 1080p
What's up with that by the way? I constantly watch videos in 720p that advertise 4K in the title.
I think they will offer higher bitrates if you use chrome instead of firefox
Purge your filters and redownload. It's a problem on your end.
Works like a charm.
Still working for me. The second it stops I'm out of there.
I installed freetube in preparation of this, haven't used youtube itself all week either freetube or invidious and both work well for now, would recommend both if you're open to them
I've been doing the same! Freetube works quite well
Go to "Filter Lists" and Purge All Caches. That may help.
Mine is working fine but Sabine Hossenfelder made a pro-capitalism video that ignores the deterioration of the global market in the 20th century. Can someone send her a bugfix?
I'm using these. YouTube still works, but I haven't used the 'Home' tab since the nag screen about turning watch history on. I won't. My subs still work fine. I'm in the process of manually building my list in https://freetubeapp.io/ (can't get the import to work)
I'd ditch AdBlock Plus. uBlock origin is better in every regard and there's no acceptable ads bullshit:
I would also remove DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials. It is redundant if you are using uBlock Origin.
I use freetube
I use Librewolf (Firefox fork with enabled protections against trackers and spyware) with uBlock origin. And I had no issues so far with youtube.
P.S. Also, couldn't remember the last time I saw "please turn off adblock" nagging on random websites... or an ad...
Holy shit you scared me, everything works for me on librewolf
I've had a few times where ads somehow appear with audio but no video.
Still working for me. Only change I noticed is that the edges of the video player are rounded now.
How's it with you guys ?
Still working for me
Still works for me on mobile and desktop.
Stopped working yesterday now I just find what I want to watch and watch it on piped. It's a little more annoying but less annoying than the endless ads every few minutes
Purging the filters of uBlock worked for me, maybe it'll help you too. But I was using piped too.
Still working for me. I'm wondering if it's a staggered rollout on YouTube's end. Have you had any luck in getting this working again?
Had the same problem with my Firefox and uBlock Origin install. Had to purge and update the filter lists in uBlock Origin and after that Youtube was working again.
still fine so far for me
wonder how long that's going to last
Works fine on desktop here, on mobile I just use Newpipe
Same for me with uBlock Origin, until I have updated to version 1.51.0
It should be illegal to interfere with a user experience outside of delivering it to them.
Samet thing happened to me thsn got fixed by itself, I switched to piped tho in case they win the war on adblock
Carefull tho piped is getting blocked by youtube
Same, a few weeks ago already. Switched to freetube back then.
How's it with you guys ?
For me as well. But then I purged the cache and updated ublock filters. And now it's working again.
It's a race between youtube and ublock, and ublock is winning.
Gorhill is great, and they don't even accept donations for uBO
the filter list maintainers and debuggers deserve the big shout out here.
my uBo code is a bit dated (don't update addons automatically) but has updated filter lists and works fine so far.
