I cannot understand how some people are living with this. It is unbearable

In Firefox, on Linux, behind a VPN and firewall with ad blocker, I run 5 different privacy/ad blocking extensions. I keep hearing about adds, but not seeing them.

Supposedly Youtube now is getting more agressive on this? I wouldn't know. Haven't seen a Youtube notice about it yet.

But really, I dream of the day youtube is replaced by something else. Fracture Youtube into 1,000 pieces and scatter it into the wind.

Bonzy Buddy... Anyone? I found it so often at customer computers. When they saw me trying to uninstall it, they got quite angry, because they REALLY LIKED that funny monkey.

I just dual booted my desktop with Linux Mint the other day, for funsies I tried navigating the net (before adding UBO) and it was a shitshow.

0/10 do not recommend.

my partner's mouse's scroll wheel has been broken for years. every time i've tried to get them a new mouse they stop using it after about 2 days and go back to the busted one. why? "idk it was too heavy/didn't fit their small hands/plastic felt weird" etc. deadass i've gone through about 6 or 7. idk what the point of this rambling post is other than people are adaptable to shitty conditions and most straight up don't care that their hardware/software is shitty.

When you click the ublock button it says how many things they blocked. Mine is in the millions by now.

Simultaneously the worst and funniest thing I've ever seen - got together with my now ex and she opens up her laptop to show me her bank statement. I look over and I see IN REAL TIME all of the English text convert into wingdings.

"No don't change it, its really funny; I like it!!!" I bet, super funny - but it's your friggin' bank account! Who knows what else it's doing besides being a bit silly?
