@faithisleaping Well in terms of #ads, #uBlockOrigin & #SponsorBlock keep my #YouTube ad-free...

Again: I wished I could do both and I'd really love to but I'm kinda forced to write and not given the resources to make any videos whatsoever...

Which is a shame cuz I do want to do that...

#today the water is out and #sponsorblock is offline. So I sit here stinking, waiting for a shower and sulking because I can't do my morning youtube without ad skip.

Maybe I'll just get a head start on my #halloween spookfest.

Les dev d'#invidious font un travail formidable, j'avais presque oublié que #google s'acharne à bloquer toutes les instances. Et si j'y ajoute #sponsorblock, j'utilise son service de manière absolument pas rentable pour lui, c'est tellement jouissif.

#YouTube #ReVanced Extended is a dead parrot, according to a forum I found. However, a version of non-Extended ReVanced is working. Not as well, though. For example, beneath the timeline on a video, there are buttons for Comments and Details and such. Those buttons work in #Extended, while in plain RV they don't. Clicking them on TV merely makes the line of buttons disappear, and they do nothing.

But one thing that does work in RV is my YouTube account. That's a big deficit in #PipePipe and #NewPipe. If I see a video worth watching while I'm on my PC, I add it to my #WatchLater queue. Ditto if I'm on my tablet. Then later I can watch it on TV via #NvidiaShield.

That fails without an account. Without a shared account, devices are separated. If I add a video to a playlist on tablet, that has zero effect on my TV box, which seriously cramps my flow. I'd have to save links of vids I wanted to watch later to some other app, and transfer them to my Shield in the evening. I probably will make a copy of my subscriptions and saved playlists in PipePipe, even if I can't get #SponsorBlock to work there. Good to have a backup in case RV dies like RVX did. It will take many hours over several days, however.

Well, various finagling hasn't gotten videos to play past the 70-second mark in #YouTube #ReVanced Extended, so it seems dead to me, at least for now. Strangely, the non-Extended version seems to be working, despite RVX being at 18.27.36 and RV only being at 18.23.35.

I also played with #NewPipe #SponsorBlock 0.25.1, but [1] it's fragile (zoom and unzoom the video wrong, and playback gets the green jitters), and [2] SponsorBlock requires an API URI, and the only one I found online doesn't seem to do anything. Downloaded but haven't yet played with #PipePipe.

@ronane
C'est pas moins lourd de comparer les liens avec une base de données de liens signalés par les utilisateurs ?

Un peu sur le modèle de #SponsorBlock , les utilisateurs rapportent les parties de vidéos qui contiennent de la promo, de la pub etc, et le lecteur vidéo saute automatiquement ces parties a la lecture.

PS PSA: If you're using YouTube without #SponsorBlock, be sure to check it out as well:

Cool, @sponsorblock is on #Mastdodon as well! Didn't know, awesome :)

NewPipe è la migliore alternativa a YouTube Vanced?

@arnowi
I hit View All on the right edge of the screen with Playlists to get a vertical listing. And as long as #ReVanced keeps blocking ads (well, technically the built-in #SponsorBlock) and other things, I'll stick with it.

@forthy @wolfram_roesler @torproject

Ja, #uBlockOrigin + #SponsorBlock macht #YouTube werbefrei!

@forthy @wolfram_roesler ich rate zu #Firefox mit #NoScript, #YesScript, #uBlockOrigin & #SponsorBlock...

Ode gleich @torproject #TorBrowser...

to the people who keep putting meaningless #sponsorblock "highlight" markers into every fucking video:

can you PLEASE stop? No, the first meaningful word after an intro is NOT the highlight. No, the part of a video you found mildly more interesting is NOT the highlight.

To everyone else using sponsorblock: please downvote bad sections. A big part of contributing to a project like this is weeding out the bad stuff.

@ArmyGirl @MadameFlutterbi
Look up #SponsorBlock

Every time I’m forced to watch a mid-video sponsor segment AFTER watching 30-60 seconds of unskippable ads before a Linus Tech Tips video, I’m reminded that using #uBlock and #SponsorBlock are the only moral ways to consume the modern web, and if the web as we know it imploded tomorrow, I’d be more happy than I would sad. If only #tvOS had #adblockers.

@dirksche @Nick_Lange ich bevorzuge einfach alles durch #uBlockOrigin & #SponsorBlock auf #Linux zu jagen, um das abzufiltern was nicht #pfBlockerNG auf meiner #pfSense yeeted.

Auf Android kann ich #AdAway + #NewPipe empfehlen!

ooh, #SponsorBlock actually supports both #invidious and #piped

wait, doesn't piped already have sponsorblock support built in?
