But now there's video sponsorship. It's a losing battle

Moved to cawfee.club

@ScriptFanix @stux There's an extension called Sponsorblock that skips all sponsored segments of a video. I don't know how well it works, but it's still something.

@ScriptFanix @stux eh I prefer the video sponsorship to the ads, bc at least in that case the money's going to the creator of the video
the normal ads *maybe* go *a tiny bit* to the creator and the rest goes to Google :/

Breizh

@raphaelmorgan @ScriptFanix @stux I agree. And video sponsorship don’t need any tracking. And the creator can refuse some of them (compared to Google ads, at least).

Other ad-free options:

- NewPipe (and there's a SponsorBlock fork too: github.com/polymorphicshade/Ne ) [makes sense on mobile]
- SmartTubeNext: github.com/yuliskov/SmartTubeN [makes sense on a "tv device"

@emacsomancer Unfortunately my SmartMonitor does not embark Android. It's a Samsung device

@ScriptFanix @stux

I plugged a ~$20 android stick device into my Samsung smart-tv to avoid this sort of issue.
