Yes, I did start using PIped and Invidious on my browser and installed Newpipe in my phone. Tho there are some drawbacks, it is much better than using Youtube directly after I heard about them planning to block adblockers and removing recommendations for signed in users with watch history off.
Great, then you probably don't need SponsorBlock, to my knowledge the extension only works on YouTube's official website.
Don't know about NewPipe, but SponsorBlock is integrated into revanced!
Newpipe x Sponsorblock is a thing.
Also, is there a preferred way to create a Firefox account? I don't want to enter my personal email, and adding a disposable email may lock me from this account if it asks for verification later on.
I'd recommend using SimpleLogin or Addy (formerly AnonAddy).
Woah, email aliases is the perfect solution for this! Thank you very much!
