I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:

"If you use adblock, you don't care about creator's point blank"

What is your opinion on this? Do you agree with them?

Yes, uBlock Origin on Firefox and AdGuard on mobile devices. Can't live without adblock these days, especially for watching YouTube.

Same here, uBlock on Firefox with my desktop. On mobile you should try youtube ReVanced.

How's revanced compare to Newpipe?

[โ€“] ltt@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Newpipe has different user interface. Revanced is exactly youtube with just modification to remove ads and add more function like sponsorblock

Ah. I've gotten so used to Newpipe that the few times I used the real YouTube app it just pissed me off
