All companies seem to be doing their best lately to cure us of our social media addiction.

I'm back on internet forums now. Screw the big companies.

Can you recommend some general forums that focus on a wide array of topics? Or do you only visit niché community forums?

The Whirlpool forums are probably going to meet that requirement, though they're local to Australia. I'm not sure of a global equivalent...

The fediverse makes the internet feel more alive than ever.

It feels less mindless scrolling and more interaction.

Open your ublock Origin dashboard and add the following 4 lines:


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)

You're welcome.

I'm worried one day they will re-encode videos with advertisements themselves, or something similar to that. Although I guess SponsorBlock takes care of that, until they straight up just break/remove extensions with their crazy "Web Environment Integrity" proposal.
