I configured the newsboat
rss reader for my youtube subscriptions, but you may want to configure another reader that allows you to download/watch videos. An alternative to @cow@lemmy.world’s javascript code, you can go onto the homepage of a youtube channel, open up the page source and search for “rssurl”. That will give you the rss feed for the channel.
A lot of readers can do this automatically. It really is nice to watch videos without any of the suggestions or ads. Also, if you use mpv
to watch the videos, you can install a sponsorblock script that does away with the paid promotions in the video.
The Republican party has led the initial charge, with a series of claims about extraterrestrial life that, until recently, would have been seen as career-ending.
LOL, more distraction from one party’s inability to do their freaking job. It’s funny that 1) alien visitors cross unfathomable distances using what must be technology far, far, in advance of anything we have, yet “crash” and 2) These “crashes” only happen in the US, or the US quickly swoops in to take all evidence of this from foreign countries.
tl;dr Americans are so self-centered and narcissistic it’s painful at times.
It’s so fucking easy to do so. Even run it off a rented host.
That would be a pretty basic bash script, but as others have said, really not recommended.

If a website doesn’t want me to see their shit, then I guess i won’t see their shit. I already have some sites that don’t work because of my aggressive use of lists on my pihole, in addition to the usual browser plugins. If a site doesn’t work now, I just move on. I don’t give a shit about any site enough to put up with this type of bullshit.
Yeah, that’s what I said. I just don’t know how hard it is to recompile or whatever and use it. I guess that’s a learning path I’ll have to go down. Probably not hard, I know basic programming.
It depends on the instance you signed up with. Mine, and it looks like yours, doesn’t have downvotes. It’s the host’s decision. Annoying at times like this, huh?

I like this! Thanks for posting. I don’t know anything about compiling an add-on, but it looks like it would be super easy to update the list (add twitter or reddit as things to block any mention of). So I guess my question is, how easy is it to just edit https://github.com/aCosmicWave/blocktherich/blob/main/blocktherich.js to update the add-on?

Not to mention how easy it is to yt-dlp
a playlist and have it for offline. It blows my mind what people are willing (or really able) to waste money on.
Going back to the most famous code comment in Unix history You are not expected to understand this

If a 6 year old PC that cost as much as an Apple 6 years ago can’t run Windows, you got ripped off.
It would be so great if all these big “social media” companies just went out of business.
Not everywhere, that’s for sure.
The waitresses said they make the federal minimum wage for tipped workers, which is $2.13 per hour. The intention is that the bulk of their income will primarily come from tips. Schoolmeester-Cochran estimated she works anywhere from 21 to 35 hours each week and, with tips, brings in a salary ranging from $70 some weeks to $170 others. <-- Waffle House employee
In the past, when there was a much higher tax on high income earners, instead of paying more in taxes, they would spread the wealth a little more equitably. This was true in Hollywood, in corporations, hell, in working service industry jobs. There were still rich, but so were others. In the past 40 years, we have been experiencing the greatest wealth transfer (over $50 fucking trillion ) from the working class to the 1% ever. And it’s poised to get worse. Anyone who doesn’t support unions and a strongly progressive tax is either ignorant of the history of the US, or an asshole. There is no in between.
