My Firefox and Ublock extension must be living under a rock then because i don’t see any ads.
Same
SmartTubeNext on FireTV stick, ReVanced on the phone and Firefox/uBlock origin on the PC. I’ve only seen the news about this elusive change. At this point I’m curious which ad blockers are not working and what their market share is.
I think it’s just google chrome where ublock doesn’t work. My friend uses ungoogled chromium and he hasn’t seen it either.
Then how come I can still access it?
Using µblock on Firefox in GermanyI imagine it’s like most YouTube updates (if not all) that are rolled out partially to different users through different areas.
Wasn’t there an EU ruling recently, that blocking users from accessing content just because they use an adblocker is illegal?
I’m not aware of any, and legislating that private enterprises have to provide their services fo free would violate the constitution of most EU countries.
I believe there is an EU ruling that ad-blocking can’t be illegal, because users can’t be forced to download and run code they don’t want on their PC’s.
My revanced doesn’t care
Genuine question: how well does the app work? When I was looking at the reviews in the app store they were um, scathing at best.
The app isn’t in any app store(officially) it’s only hosted on their own site/GitHub. If you are root you can take advantage of a lot of nice to haves that a non-root install misses(such as the “open in app” function of Firefox)
Firefox “open in app” definitely works with my non-root Revanced
Huh, I’m still using a fairly old build(too lazy to update) maybe it was a different feature(s) that required it, i cant quite recall.
Oh! Ty. I remember reading about it but it seemed a bit daunting and I never got around to really doing it. I will have to look into it again. YT is so miserable on the phone and the obligatory settings absolutely wreck my battery.
It’s really not that bad. All you need is a YouTube apk of the recommended version and the revanced manager. Finding the correct YouTube apk can be a bit annoying but the patching process is completely automatic.
I recommend https://grayjay.app/ you can follow creators cross platform and watch yt without ads
I would totally give them some money for it if I watched more yt on my phone, but I rarely ever do that. They desperately need a desktop version.
you use youtube with adblock because it is a great repository of information without having to deal with ads
i use youtube with adblock because it costs google money
we are not the same
Just don’t use youtub.
