I know, I know, the wisest thing to do is to abandon them, but today I came across a site that I simply couldn't bypass because it always blocked me with an extremely stupid "disable your adblock" video, that infuriated me so much... I would 100% migrate to torrents if I didn't find such unique catalogs on these sites.

I create a ublock filter. Out of interest, what exotic media are you trying to find specifically that requires using those sites?

Haven’t seen anyone mention this, but a lot of the times if you’re quick you can just click reader mode and the whole page loads.

I'm disappointed with this spiteful crowd that literally gives the least helpful answer you specifically asked not to receive.

Just click on uBlock Origin and disable scripts for that website, then reload.
A lot of the tips down here (reader mode, archive, NoScript) di just that but with other tools.
This works on desktop on any browser and on Android using Firefox/Fennec.

If that doesn't work, click on uBlock Origin, then on the lightning bolt, then on the pop-up, to delete it.
You may need to repeat these steps a few times until it's gone.

I like to open them in either its own browser or a virtual machines browser. One that wipes it's cache/tracking/etc each time you exit. Its not great but at least it sandboxes it a bit in an area not connected to any of my other data

I usually try searching for alternatives via Yandex

YouTube I have been able to clear cache and start the free trial again.

On iOS, Wipr 2 blocks ads AND overrides “disable your adblocker” things (and autoplaying videos, cookie shit, and tons of other stuff)
