But what happens when the timer is done? Just a scare tactic?

[–] figaro@lemdro.id 7 points 1 year ago

No one likes timers. They are scary

They force ads and steal money from the content creators, and people still flock to use their services. How fucking braindead can you be?

Just stop using YouTube. That will fix their problems real quick.

So what are my options on windows? I just know about patched clients on Android

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 year ago

Paste link to VLC, mpv, other media player. Also Freetube and the sort work.

You could try https://piped.video or another piped instance

I just went to yt's front page, which I haven't done in a long while (usually use NewPipe or use a direct link). There is a LOT of garbage on there. I mean, holy crap! It's not the creators' fault, I know. The Algorithm decides, and they must appease The Algorithm. Still, though. And, now, this timer bs for the 2% who use adblockers?
