Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads
For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.
(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)
For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.
From the Kotlin source for "dvd":
Video downloader app powered by yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl).
Features
Download video/audio from 1000+ sites supported by yt-dlp.
Run custom yt-dlp commands.
Update yt-dlp version from settings.
Share link via other apps.

Google fights Invidious (a privacy YouTube Front end)
Yep. yt-dlp and youtube-dl

Will also start to feel the impact. My theory is that we will see a bunch of new video hosting sites as youtube itself attempts to lock down its ecosystem. They haven't paid attention in any adversarial way as far as I can tell.
When they do, it wont be great.

Forget spaceships; I just want my music
Youtube-dl still functions quite well. You can even grab the CLI here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
And occasionally you can find one of their TLDs just by doing a search on DDG or Brave.

Hopefully this isn't stupid. But what am I doing wrong please?
If you don't want to switch to yt-dlp, then wait for a fix in the code of youtube-dl and then download a version from Unofficial daily builds.

TMS' "fingerprint" question
I'm using fingerprints built from different versions of the song, including the original and remastered versions you can find on the Discord and the "pitch corrected" version you can grab from YouTube. I'm chopping each fingerprint into 100 sample chunks and searching each YouTube video (audio only, using youtube-dl) for them. Checking for the fingerprint is the fastest part of the process, so trying many against each download isn't a problem. I've confirmed it's possible to detect TMS in videos about TMS (eg. Whang, CW Schultz) where less than the full song is played.

YouTube is bringing unskippable 30-second ads to TV | The longer commercials will appear in place of two consecutive 15-second ads. The company will also show ads when you pause videos.
It's getting the point where I wont use YT unless I'm using https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl

And the best part is there are solutions already that do this: https://keepass.info/
Does it work on Android or iOS?

Google-hosted malvertising leads to fake Keepass site that looks genuine
When you're at a point where you're relying on a display name to make security-critical decisions, you've already lost.
Character substitutions like ķeepass or ƙeepass or keypass are at least possible to spot if you know the name of the product, but not the full URL.
But there are many ways to create lookalike domains that don't change the product name: https://keepass.org https://keepass.net https://keepass.info https://keepass.cx https://keepassxc.org https://keepass-info.net https://keepass-manager.com
Which of these is the correct one? (It's https://keepassxc.org of course, but just looking at the URL won't tell you that.)
The root cause is downloading software you see advertised on Google even though that does not in any way establish trustworthiness.

Google announces passwordless by default: Make the switch to passkeys
> People love to hate on passwords but the reality is that for many circumstances (threat models) they are the best compromise. You can make them more than strong enough (take 32+ bytes out of /dev/random and encode however you like, nobody will ever brute force that in this universe) and various passwords managers solve the problem of re-use (never reuse a password).
> And it comes with the benefit that you control how it is stored and can apply as much redundancy as you want to feel comfortable.
Honestly, I agree! I used KeePass back in the day (https://keepass.info/) but now use KeePassXC (https://keepassxc.org/) and it's really nice - I don't know any of my passwords because they're all randomly generated and are pretty secure. The only one I have to remember is my main password for decrypting the safe, which I also wrote down and entrusted to someone close to me due to its complexity.
It honestly works great, software to interact with the password safe is on every platform where I need it to be, in addition to it being super easy to reason about storage, because it's basically just a file - that I can then put on self-hosted Nextcloud, or another solution like that, or USB sticks or burn to CDs for all I care.
Maybe I should also migrate all of my TOTP stuff over to it and look into good Android apps at some point, then I wouldn't quite need Google Authenticator or FreeOTP anymore, either.

If you cannot download any books, then you’re on one of the scam sites
If you have used this combo at many sites (which is of course not recommended) then download one of the available free Password Managers like Keepass, Bitwarden, Lastpass or any others you can find with a Google Search

Your privacy is optional
I also tried out KeePass for a little bit but prefer the BitWarden apps. The key thing here is don't store your passwords in the cloud as they are massive target for hackers.

My privacy journey -thanks to this and r/privacy sub AND how can I make it better
If though you can't stand the idea of your password vault on a 3rd party server then you can use an offline password manager like KeePass. Of course, you have to take responsibility for making and storing backups of your vault in case something happens to your device. Fortunately, Syncthing can make this pretty trivial.
