Does anyone have suggestions for existing maintained ublock origin filters to make YouTube less addictive? My kid is complaining that YouTube's methods to get you scrolling and rabbit-holing are too effective. I showed him how he can use the eyedropper tool to create his own blocks for elements on the page, but if there's someone who has come up with a list to do this it'd be great to import their blocklist.
Czytam, że z wydaniem wersji 151 #Google #Chrome wyłączy już do końca (wcześniej były obejścia) możliwość korzystania z blockerów reklam, jak #uBlock Origin i podobne.
Kiedyś, kłopoty z blokowaniem reklam (ale nie tylko to) uśmierciły Internet Explorera.
Zastanawiam się, jaka będzie skala "odejść" od tej przeglądarki i na co osoby korzystające z Chrome ja zmienią. Dodam, że MS #Edge i #Opera deklarują podążanie za Google Chrome, więc w nich blokad reklam też nie będzie.
#Vivaldi? Chromium w wydaniach DeGoogled? #Cromite? Iron? Czy po prostu Lisek?
Bo w przyzwyczajenie się do reklam nie wierzę 😉
Google Chrome is killing all uBlock Origin bypasses, Microsoft Edge, Opera to follow
"Unfortunately, we won't be putting code behind a compilation flag ... We won't be removing all the MV2 code wholesale right away, so many of these things will continue working for awhile (but they will go away eventually, and some may go away sooner than others)."
Replace Ads with They Live style slogans
A fork of uBlock Origin Lite that, instead of hiding cosmetically-blocked ads, replaces them with white tiles bearing slogans from John Carpenter's 1988 film They Live: OBEY, CONSUME, WATCH TV, SLEEP, SUBMIT, CONFORM, STAY ASLEEP, BUY, WORK, NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT, DO NOT QUESTION AUTHORITY.
(Use the original @ublockorigin for safety!)

Note: there should be three (3) pound signs between ".com" and "CopilotCommandCenterButton". For some reason my fediverse server does not display all three.

This post is not an invitation to criticize me for using a Microsoft product or to suggest an alternative.
This is so much like when ads started flooding everything online, right down to the tools I'm using to de-clutter sites and webapps. At this point Jira is pimpled with terrible AI links nudged right next to legitimately useful features. Like it has acne, or maybe buboes.

https://scholar.google.comThe first line blocks the linked text. The second line blocks the red "New!". That one is likely to malfunction and catch other, possibly interesting stuff so you can omit that if you don't mind seeing a red "New!" without anything after it.
