Revanced on mobile uBlock on firefox

[–] LogicOverFeelings@piefed.ca 7 points 1 month ago

+1 for Revanced. I did the switch recently and I only regret not having done it earlier. YouTube just have too many ads nowadays, it's not watchable without an ads blocking solution.

Is revanced much better than newpipe?

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

May I show you the way of Revanced (Manager)?

[–] runner_g@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I downloaded revanced at one point, may even still have it installed. I've just found that a shortcut to YouTube.com on my home screen has worked great and I haven't felt like changing. what makes revanced better?

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

You can remove shorts, sponsor block built it, window player, background player, can change how the player works (double tap to seek, vol/brightness controls) enable/disable recommended embedded video links (tiles), can make video pause on notifications, sanitizes sharing links. There are 56 patches avail.

Revanced can also be used to patch other software like spotify, reddit, twitch and facebook

ReVanced just allows you to ad block and sponsor skip via the YouTube app on mobile

Brave browser also works on mobile, including playing when another app is open or the screen is locked.
