    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.

  • Invidious

    Invidious is an alternative front-end to YouTube

    • Because (a) it's not that widely known and (b) Google is trying to block it [1], so many instances are broken now, which isn't a great experience.
