  3. Alamofire

    Elegant HTTP Networking in Swift

    I don't have any numbers, but I think this is still pretty common. On iOS for example Alamofire which is a popular network stack, still offers this as a feature. I think the use case is a bit different for apps and web sites, especially for closed ecosystems like Apple's where reverse engineering is not as easy/straightforward.

  4. FreeTube

    An Open Source YouTube app for privacy

    google for "sponsorblock" extension for your browser, crowdsourced data makes it skip all the promotions, intros, "like and subscribe" and all other unneeded parts.

    And when you're at it, ublock origin also skips the youtube ads.

    There's also: https://freetubeapp.io/ , but it's a constant cat and mouse game with youtube, where you now have to refresh a video a few times before it starts playing (then it works fine), until they upgrade the software and then it works, until youtube changes something again.

  5. yattee

    Privacy oriented video player for iOS, tvOS and macOS
