Even if I have to sit through 30 seconds of silence, is there a way to redirect the ad to a ghost browser so I don’t have to listen to something like grubhubs stupid video?
I hear the ungoogled chromium is immune to the youtube antiadblock bs while getting rid of google’s influence, leaving you to be able to keep your Firefox identity safe without compromising your privacy by going to a browser you know is maintained by a community instead of another corporation
For me personally, even when it’s to my detriment, I intentionally go out of my way to use Firefox because other than Safari, it’s the last major independent browser engine and I want to be at least one user of it, if it helps keep it relevant. That being said, I feel that Firefox might become more relevant and arguably already has because of crap like this.
Fair enough, I mentioned ungoogled chrome because websites are lenient to it, and I use it for those sites that are being a pain in my ass. Also, I use the ungoogle chromium to separate my Firefox fingerprint from those privacy invading sites. It’s a strange quirk of mine, but I’m hoping it pays off to prevent them from identifying my browsing habits.
I ran into the same problem. Uninstalling and trying again without touching any of the options for setup worked instead of going in and messing with the toggles. I hope it helps. I would suggest you look for a Lemmy uhh… What do we call them? Subreddit? I mean they are on the other site too and perhaps you can get assistance there if you’re still having issues
Definitely agree, but your link is protected by cloudflare (yet another centralized service destroying the internet) and therefore I’m unable to get through because I have privacy.resistFingerprinting enabled on my browser so cloudflare is unable to determine I’m human I suppose.
I despire youtube and it’s monopoly, and I think it get’s an appropriate amount of hate on here and HN, but what confuses me to no end are the people who complain about youtube turn right around and constantly recommend cloudflare. Can someone explain what I am missing?

Not exactly what you have described but better https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/

Yeah that’s totally fair enough and I can totally see that.
Stop using YouTube, go for new pipe/piped/invidious instead. Same content without the fucking bullshit.
Example: http://yt.whateveritworks.org
Freetube is another valid option
Or ReVanced
Cannot get this to work for the life of me. Worked for a bit, then it stopped working again and no amount of repatching fixes it

R🤮ddit has subr🤮ddits, while Lemmy has communities and instances.
There’s probably a guide on the db0 instance
Thanks I’ll give it a try
