Gregory's Server@Setok @jks @holothuroid I'm thinking a site-specific ad-blocker rule for the <video> tag might be helpful here. I particularly detest when you scroll past the clip and it pops up in a sidebar like I wasn't trying to ignore it.

 @Setok @jks @holothuroid My current approach is to inspect something close, like a frame or a drop shadow around the clip, then step up to the enclosing tag (often an iframe) and delete the damn thing. It doesn't happen quite often enough for a custom ublock rule, but I'm on the cusp.  @alan @jks @holothuroid this is the real stuff we need to get AI working on: shutting down the annoying crap on the web. (Actually a previous company of mine, Attractive.ai, was almost on that mission) @Setok @jks @holothuroid Once this third bubble of AI bursts and generative AI goes back into the lab where it belongs for a few years, that sounds like a useful application (although it will never attract VC because it's effectively counter-culture and anti-capitalist). It would make a decent FOSS project though. |
@alan @jks @holothuroid makes my blood boil that one…
