A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There are people out there using YT without an ad-blocker?
I prefer watching on my tablet, and still got no luck with any ad blocker. Somehow I like the default YT app, so switching to something else would be hard for me…
I use NewPipe. Never seen a single add in 5+ years.
Then again I don't use a google account on YouTube.
Yes NewPipe is great, just watch what you want, no ads just the channels you're subscribed to !! But I wonder how this YouTube experiment is going to affect NewPipe as it's not using a YouTube account for watching.....
