I’ve been seeing a lot of posts & comments ranting about how long YouTube ads are [Edit: specifically, ON LEMMY], how tiny the little X is to close popups, etc and I don’t get it. It’s less effort to install blockers than it is to keep complaining about ads.
Browser: uBlock Origin on Firefox, works on both Android and Desktop (Windows/Linux)
Most Android apps: RethinkDNS to block third-party ads
YouTube: NewPipe or ReVanced Manager
Reddit: ReVanced Manager
I’m always surprised when people don’t use some level of adblocking. DNS-based on mobile and a browser extension on desktop seem like the bare minimum.
