GitHub - webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop: Device/DevMode Manager for webOS TV

I use this to install moonlight: https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop

I don’t think so. There’s rootmy.tv for up to last years firmware and I believe this one which I’m not sure about. I remember dev mode needing to be refreshed about once a month or so. There may be another git that I’m missing, but afaik there’s no vpn client in the repos. It may be possible to compile one or install a precompiled one, but I haven’t looked into it.

or just turn on dev mode (instructions in link above) uninstall youtube, run https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop/releases on your computer, use it to install "youtube adfree"

Solution 2: if you don’t have an iphone, you can download the developer tools from the lg app store and follow a tutorial which will allow you to install the crunchyroll app for 999 hours (there’s a tool called LG developer manager (https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop) which requires no rooting of the device and it’s pretty much 3 steps to follow.

In order to sideload a custom application you need to use the official dev manager tool from LG https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop

I'm trying out alternatives fadblock seems to work well enough so far, but this is enshitification.

If it comes to it I'll migrate over to using yt-dlp or disregard YT entirely and find somewhere else. I believe others feel similarly. Ads are not acceptable to me.

Fortunately, nothing breeds innovation like war, and a new type of adblocker has been born, Fadblock. Fadblock does not block ads from loading, like uBlock, but rather tricks youtube into thinking they've been played, and it does so in a very clever fashion - by playing them... at 10,000x speed (with no audio). This effectively skips ads and the video loads instantaneously.

It's definitely pretty tricky to try and even come up with statistics.

ublock was having issues early on, that required a laundry list of things to do to make sure youtube couldn't detect that something was up. I don't know if this has changed or not.

So rather than troubleshoot, what I did was turn it off on yotube, and install https://github.com/0x48piraj/fadblock, which isn't 100% perfect like the original ublock experience, but has been very durable against google's efforts.

Google may or may not believe they were successful in my case, depending on what they are looking for.

This thing seems to work pretty well: https://github.com/0x48piraj/fadblock

Instead of actually blocking the ad elements, it just auto-forwards the videos to the end once loaded. Slightly jankier, but much harder to detect.

This all seems over-complicated.

Why not just use fadblock?

It doesn't need to be updated in this cat and mouse game. it just skips the ads in milliseconds and you don't even notice them.

Seems to do a lot of DOM querying using a setTimeout

   if (isAd && skipLock) {

Might I suggest this little fella: https://github.com/0x48piraj/fadblock ?
