This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Even if I have to sit through 30 seconds of silence, is there a way to redirect the ad to a ghost browser so I don't have to listen to something like grubhubs stupid video?
Not exactly what you have described but better https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/
Reset Ublock orgin and update the filter and Ublock extension. Disable other adblock extension if you have one. Still you would be getting the popup once a while.
Hold the line uBlock Origin. If YT becomes unusable, I'll find somewhere to binge-watch true crime videos at 3am.
Eh, don't need YouTube that badly. I think we'll collectively figure out video distribution without em just fine.
Fuck youtube
Oh no, I will have to do something useful with my time instead of watching 100 viral and algorithmically selected videos designed to enrage me -- one after each other. WHAT WILL I DO
edit stir up shit here I guess
A good ad blocker would be one that will still load the page as intended but not display the ads. There would be no way for the site to know you can't see them. Blocking their activation just signals the site that you are using an adblocker.
Edit: I was thinking more of a VM sandbox like another comment said
More PeerTube please!
Been getting that lately after successfully avoiding it for a bit. Just not gonna use it directly anymore.
