  • Youtube's war on adblockers continues, sends cease & desist to invidious.io - you know what to do 😉

    then there is one awesome thing, that allows you to make video play through any of the online Invidious instances. https://farside.link/ where video URL looks like this: https://farside.link/invidious/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ opening this link will not point you to the same instance each time, it will select from the list of instances and choose one. Farside also does other frontends, not just Invidious.

  • How to make YouTube less distracting

    Libredirect, the extension, needs access to my data but it remains in the extension.

    Farside, as I understand it, sends clicks to https://farside.link, which will redirect to the appropriate proxy with the full URL including the path. I can't really tell because the source code of the extension isn't linked. This behaviour can only be acceptable if I set the extension to query an instance I trust (my own, for example), but at this point it's just easier to do everything in the extension itself.

    If ur paran0id, self host your own instance on a VPS. Ask yourself what is worse - google knowing what you are doing, or some other individual perv knowing what you are doing? Use farside.link to distribute ur use across multiple instances...i'd say that's the best option.
