When my personal Roku TV died, I just didn't replace it. If I ever do get another TV, I'll look for a dumb one (they still make them for institutional customers like hospitals etc) & connect a mini-PC that cuts out all the data surveillance / advertising shenanigans.

Due to Youtube shenanigans at the moment, things like YtDownloader & Cobalt.tools not working (they'll probably need a few days to adjust).
But downloading a YT video in Firefox with the Video Download Helper extension still works! So no worries about interruptions during the watch party :)

there is a whole startup that apparently exists just so that websites can have a one-day r/uBlockOrigin thread about them

someone who is good at the economy please help me understand this #adBlocking

I use #FreeTube to stream & YtDownloader to download
I run AdGuard on my devices. It works.
Today, I came across a website that showed me an ad. I navigated to the AdGuard plugin, and the webbrowser shut down.
Rinse – repeat.
So I went into the AdGuard app, and blocked the whole damn domain. No ads for me; no ads served for them.
