there is already an option to block entire google eco system in NextDNS

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 weeks ago

That's cool. I'm still new to the privacy community, so I only share things I've learned. But this is really helpful.

this list includes youtube; what do you use in place of you if you want to find videos like this one? 1NoocEuep2s

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Thx for comment. So, for Youtube Videos, i using the invidious.io instanz, with the Tor Browser and LibreWolf. Hope, that helps.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

i'm aware of those platforms and i see your update to someone else about not speaking english, so now i can understand your response.

i'm asking how you lookup videos when you only have the identification number for a video on youtube.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

You can convert YouTube links to invidious, just replace the YouTube section with the invidious instance. Example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQUEUM0t1y8

https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=nQUEUM0t1y8

that's WAY TOO simple; i need a complicated and difficult to understand explanation!!! lol

[–] vyitnoomyr@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Don't forget to put Libredirect.github.io in your Firefoxes!! It's the Intended Way to browse my Very Good Posts

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

did know about this one and now i'm giving it a shot.

thanks!

[–] vyitnoomyr@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 week ago

If you have any issues just remember you can have it scan for public instances & dump the nonfunctional ones with the switch instance + reroll button. There's a couple with no public instance you'd have to host yourself, like Instagram.

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

AHHH! Now i get it. Yes. Im really sorry, but yes. I know that "Trick" 😅 But, even in Invidious i am more the "classic" searching type, with titel 😊

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm really sorry. Unfortunately, I don't know what you mean by 'ID', as I usually don't deal with IDs 😅. I normally just go to Invidious.io, select an instance there, and enter regular search terms to watch a video, just like on the real YouTube channel. That's it.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

it's okay, the user named cowbee answered my question.

[–] AuroraSine@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ah, okay, phew! That's a relief... and Sorry again😅
