Newpipe.net removed from Google search results due to DMCA take down request
If you're looking for a Bromite successor, right now best way is to download the uazo builds direct from GitHub: https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools There are some third party tools that will download the releases for you, but I'm fine to just manually pop by the repo whenever ungoogled-chromium[0] updates on my desktop.

Best web browser for phone
Personally I use this Chromium build. Being developed by one of the guys who worked on Bromite. With all its features.
- Are there any modern Chromium builds with ad-blocking?

Ask HN: Refusing all cookies, still targeted by ads. How?
Hmm, Thorium should be fine, at the very least? Its very close to vanilla Chromium/Google Chrome, with nothing that should mess up rendering.
There are also experimental builds of Bromite (another Chrome fork that is very close to Chromium, but with a light built-in adblocker.)

Android Browser Recommendations?
Many Bromite users now are moving to this. https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools These builds are built by uazo, the primary contributor to Bromite other than Carl, the original developer

Any alternative to Bromite?
One of the Devs of Bromite has made a Chromium browser with all of Bromites features. Updated regularly as well. You can get it from here

Alternative to Samsung Internet - Android browser with bottom back & forward buttons (not hidden)
Bromite via either its site/Fdroid, GitHub or Woolyss site has a bottom bar available in accessibility settings. (The first one has been unmaintained for a while, but has auto updates available if they ever drop. The other two are up to date but must be updated manually.)
- the best browser
- Does Bromite still receive updates?
-
It seems that Bromite is probably dead
Mull is my recommendation. If its too strict for you or breaks things, Fennec F-Droid is great too. If you need Chromium, Brave is probably the best option at the moment. You could also try uazo's build of Bromite, which is basically just a version of Bromite created by one of Bromite's developers, except up to date and with some tweaks/enhancements, though it is in beta so it could be buggy and not as refined.

Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads
Youtube seems to be doing some A/B testing with the comment system which has made proxies like Invidious and yt-dlp/Newpipe unable to load comments. There is a patch for Invidious [1] which solves this problem but it is not in master yet. I tested it on my own instance and it does solve the problem.

Google fights Invidious (a privacy YouTube Front end)
BTW, I don't understand the workaround: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/pull/4552/files
Which was taken from here: https://github.com/LuanRT/YouTube.js/pull/624
Could anybody explain it to me?

YouTube is loading slower for users with ad blockers yet again
Use a Youtube proxy like Invidious [1], problem solved and you get to subscribe to channels without telling the Beast about your interests. Add Sponsorblock (which supports Invidious) to get rid of any in-stream advertising which remains and you'll be transported back to those hallowed times of yore when men were men, women were women and advertising was something you found in newspapers. Youtube will try to make this harder just like Xitter is trying to make it harder to use proxies like Nitter [2].

YouTube begins new wave of slowdowns for users with ad blockers enabled
Going to drop this here for others who haven't heard of it https://invidious.io/
Now, how do we fix this? YouTube's ad model sucks. Their algorithm sucks. Their front page sucks. They've captured a bunch of creators though so often YouTube is the only place you can find someone.
I want those creators to benefit from me viewing their videos. I want the fact that I view a video and like it to help other people find that video in their recommendations. I want an algorithm that shows me things that are interesting and relevant not one that promotes the spammiest and most ad heavy videos that barely have anything to do with my watch history.
Having an alternative front end is nice but I don't want to rob YouTube of the money they spend on hosting the videos.
So, how do we do this?
Peer to peer fails when there is little interest in something or when most people leech and it sucks for archiving old content.
Hosting it all in one place is super expensive and hard for a small group to manage without turning into YouTube.
Maybe we could find a way for the creators to host their own content and get paid when people view it while being part of a large federated network for easy discoverability?
Please list any projects you know of, I'm sure there are a lot of people here who would be willing to contribute or donate.
