YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
It wraps up youtube content such that you see 0 ads, have 0 tracking, and a much better overall experience. As well it lets you connect to other content like stuff hosted on peertube.
I have used freetube on windows. I assume adblock is in browser context here, so freetube should skip the browser completely.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I’m using Linux right now, and glad to see they have it on Flathub. I think I’ll give that a try now! EDIT: I really like it, actually!
You might consider looking at invidious.

Thank you!
It looks like FreeTube actually has the option to route through invidious for all of those benefits. That’s really cool!
