    kbin seems like a great idea but the execution is meh. There are so many unnecessary things going on but simple things like collapsible comments and bookmarks are missing. You have to go to a post to view the links being posted. The interface also leaves a 2000s forum design vibes, with the random threads, users, communities in the sidebar. That's just wasting resources. Microblogs are included from mastodon, but if you want to microblog from with, they become threads.

    Lemmy has come a long way, however kbin doesn't seem like it's changing all that much. I know it's still in beta, so I keep an eye out. Hopefully, it'll be more customizable in the future.

    Purge your filters and redownload. It's a problem on your end.

    watched a free movie on yt for the first time in a couple months last thursday. i knew about the new war on adblockers, so i had updated ublock origin's filter list cache first.

    worked fine no ads, even got 1080p, which i rarely ever see for the 'legit' mainstream tv shows and movies they have.

    even got 1080p

    What's up with that by the way? I constantly watch videos in 720p that advertise 4K in the title.

    Can you choose 4K from the little gear icon in the bottom right corner of the player?

    Not trying to defend YouTube, but I think they align video quality to network speed so you can watch without buffering.

    I installed freetube in preparation of this, haven't used youtube itself all week either freetube or invidious and both work well for now, would recommend both if you're open to them

    Go to "Filter Lists" and Purge All Caches. That may help.

    Mine is working fine but Sabine Hossenfelder made a pro-capitalism video that ignores the deterioration of the global market in the 20th century. Can someone send her a bugfix?

    I use Librewolf (Firefox fork with enabled protections against trackers and spyware) with uBlock origin. And I had no issues so far with youtube.

    P.S. Also, couldn't remember the last time I saw "please turn off adblock" nagging on random websites... or an ad...

    I'm using these. YouTube still works, but I haven't used the 'Home' tab since the nag screen about turning watch history on. I won't. My subs still work fine. I'm in the process of manually building my list in https://freetubeapp.io/ (can't get the import to work)

    Still working for me. Only change I noticed is that the edges of the video player are rounded now.

    Still working for me. I'm wondering if it's a staggered rollout on YouTube's end. Have you had any luck in getting this working again?

    Stopped working yesterday now I just find what I want to watch and watch it on piped. It's a little more annoying but less annoying than the endless ads every few minutes

    Same for me with uBlock Origin, until I have updated to version 1.51.0

    It should be illegal to interfere with a user experience outside of delivering it to them.
