  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

All of these extensions are available on Safari too, if anyone’s wondering. Also Vinegar is an extension that replaces the video player with iOS/MacOS’s far superior native player (and seamless pip/background play)

I'm having horrible performance issues with waterfox that I don't have with vanilla Firefox. It's like the waterfox window is running at 5-10fps with horrible latency.

If youre on linux, give Phoenix for Firefox a shot. It installs a bunch of enterprise rules to harden Firefox, so youre always on the latest security patches but never with AI/Telemetry bs.

Librewolf is also pretty good, but i mention phoenix because it is vanilla firefox

You should really be using pipx

Insane seeing SuperDicq on here

I have Opera just specifically for the purpose of watching YouTube since it can still run UBlock. I use chrome for everything else.

Two questions: Why Chrome when they are spying on you? Use LibreWolf.

Whats the matter that you don't want to see ads on youtube, but getting bombed with ads on the rest of the web is okay?

I've never understood the hatred of shorts. They're perfect for pooping time

I'm a professional doomscroller and can hardly controle myself if I'm on the search for a quick dopamine rush. It consumes too much of my time.

Or I can pay for YouTube premium because I watch a tremendous amount of content on YouTube and it also supports all the creators I watch at least a little bit, so I don’t have to subscribe to 25 patreons

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Agreed. It's actually the only streaming service I subscribe to because I get so much use out of it and at least some of that money goes to actual creators. Plus, YouTube Music has an insane library of obscure shit.

Granted, I still use a few of those plugins, to improve the experience further.

Pretty sure that YT Premium lets people watch shorts.

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

who the fuck wants to though?

The thing says, "How to use YouTube Premium for free" and then it describes things that aren't YouTube Premium. That'd be like if you said "How to set up a regulation basketball hoop" and then described setting up a small trampoline under the hoop. Okay, it might be better, but that's not what you said you were doing.
