  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • Pi-hole

    A black hole for Internet advertisements

  • Had to look through a lot of comments to find this. I built a PiHole a few years back and it's great. Set it as the dns on my router, so every device I have runs through it. Now, I don't know if it works with YouTube ads, as I pay for YouTube music, but for everything else it works great. I'd imagine it'd work for YouTube ads, but I've never actually tried to find out.

  • easylist

    EasyList filter subscription (EasyList, EasyPrivacy, EasyList Cookie, Fanboy's Social/Annoyances/Notifications Blocking List)

  • uBlock appears to work by identifying the part of the site which tells you it's running ads, here's how Easylist's blocking list sort of works: https://github.com/easylist/easylist/wiki/Youtube-Issues

  • uYouPlus

    a fork of uYouPlus (14/03/2022) (by Luon-vn)

  • If you are on iOS, you can use uYouPlus for a YouTube client without ads. To sideload it, you can use any signing service (personally I started using signum.fun recently without issues), or something like AltStore (much more limited but free)

  • TrollStore

    Jailed iOS app that can install IPAs permanently with arbitary entitlements and root helpers because it trolls Apple

  • If you are between iOS 14.0 - 15.4.1, do not update as you can have permanent sideloaded apps with TrollStore. No signing service, unlimited power.

  • VideoLAN Client (VLC)

    VLC media player - All pull requests are ignored, please follow https://wiki.videolan.org/Sending_Patches_VLC/

  • 1) Download VLC

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
