Firefox with uBO, haven't seen an add or ran into any issues in ages, both windows and linux.
Shhhhhhhh..........don't let the mainstream know.......once EVERYBODY is doing it, they'll fix it.
Wait. This is Lemmy. Pretty sure there's like 8 people here......
Exactly 8 upvotes to your comment.. Let's leave it that way.
He's at 39 now... Which of you hasn't voted with your 5th account yet??
Edit: oh nm it was me. There was only a 12.5% chance it would be me but lady luck didn't smile on me.
And Arch, BTW.
Sometimes I need to refresh the page for the video to play but otherwise no issues, ff+ubo ftw
Exactly, this! uBlock Origins will block upwards of thousands of ads/trackers/whatever from YouTube. After it hits about 50k+, it'll start to act strangely. At that point I just refresh the video and it all goes away. I think this happens when YouTube changes something cached in the browser, which was originally not blocked by uBO, even when uBO might have been updated to block the new stuff. I have uBO on auto-update for this reason. Whenever I notice shit not working, F5 FTW!
