  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

What of I told you there is an easier way of blocking ads: noscript.

I guess you haven't heard they're experimenting with injecting ads right into the videos on the server. Just turning off scripts won't do anything for that.

Depending on your country, these ads still need to be marked clearly as such. And for accessibility reasons, that mark will always be machine readable.

So blockers will be fine.

Sponsor block gives me a nice list of options to do in that case: skip automatically, show a skip button or ignore. All based on what type of interruption there is.
