I switched this week.

[–] [email protected] 156 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (14 children)

I'm switching today. Right now. Because of this post.

^^maybe
EDIT: okay. I think I've done it. I'm currently editing this comment from Firefox. I already had Firefox installed. But now I have pinned it to my taskbar. I went to import my bookmarks from chrome, and found that I also had the option of importing other stuff from chrome, too (bookmarks, passwords, history and autofill data). That's sweet. My bookmark bar has the same bookmarks in the same position. I also installed ublock origin, like someone recommended. And I am going to give it a go. If it all goes smoothly, I will unpin Chrome from the taskbar.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement!

Install ublock origin and open YouTube.

You won't regret it.

fantastic. Also, just so you don't have all that "YoU hAvE tHrEe ViDeOs LeFt" BS copy paste this to the "my filters" tab (go to about:addons, click on uBlock, there dots, "preferences", then "my filters") and you should be good to go:

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false)

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0)

youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, [])

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)

Also here is another that blocks shorts entirely:

And I'm just gonna drop this right here for those who use Twitch

For the first step: Click the Extensions button (puzzle piece icon) on the right side of the toolbar next to the main hamburger menu > right-click uBlock Origin from the drop-down > "Manage extension"
