alternative-frontends VS SmartTube

use alternative privacy-focused frontends: https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends

I use nitter and proxigram to query RSS feeds.

I use something similar to this, the only differences are because my use case is privacy protection and avoiding algorithmic feeds. I use the Redirector extension for Firefox so that it redirects e.g. Youtube, Twitter, and StackOverflow links to the corresponding alternative frontends Piped, Nitter, and AnonymousOverflow. You can find maintained lists [1] [2] of such projects and their instances. Mostly they are FOSS and privacy-respecting, and they have distraction-free frontends because it's a helpful coincidence of being ethical software.

There are front end alternatives for major sites if you really need that btw. I use from time time to time Invidious when I want t o see a YT video for example. As for sites that require tracking cookies to work I simply stopped using them. If a given site requires the use of intrusive "necessary" cookies I just stop using it. I'm convinced is about priorities. If you quit a browser that is safe because is slow, well, you need to re-estate your priorities imho (not you, op, anyone ;) ).

Can't recommend SmartTube enough: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube

Includes crowdsourced sponsor block as well. The day YouTube goes the Twitch route and starts embedding ads is the day I stop using it. Literally unwatchable at this point without adblocking.

SmartTube

Replace YouTube on your TV with this: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube

For adblock on YouTube you're gonna need SmartTube. The github page has guides for installing it. You can get help in r/SmartTubeNext or shoot me a DM if you're having trouble.

And SmartTube if you have an Android TV

The one i use Is smarttube https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube apparently It doesn't work on roku, that's a shame! I'll replay again if i find something suitable

Smart tube : https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube The revenced of android tv with adblock and sponsoblock integrated. 🫡
