>have to install multiple userscripts to make youtube bearableThe absolute state of modern internet.
I've noticed that about 95% of 95% of people's custom ublock filters are for YouTube too. It's also the slowest website to load no matter your hardware or internet speed. How can one website be so universally and unequivocally bad, and for so many years in a row
>>107575967The mobile verison literally has least amount of bloat which isn't slow, it's fast.
>>107575941yeah it's pretty user-hostile these days, i keep clicking the report button and calling the google product managers a bunch of retarded niggers but i think it's filtered cause they haven't banned me yetalthough i did try that disable clickbait thumbnails one but i ended up disabling it, the truth is the thumbnails are too often a good summary of what to expect and convey way more information than some random frame of some person talking from the middle of the video
>>107576014it also doesn't really work and obviously isn't what i was talking about.
The only thing I can say for it is at least it isn't as hostile to try to use as Twitch.

>>107576083why does screenshot have fonts that aren't rendered properly? is that some OS bug
>>107576083I wish someone would make one of these for Wikipedia. The text rendering is a lot better on the mobile site. I have a userscript but it's really janky and causes a flicker.
>>107576099likely Windows 7 without font anti-aliasing enabled
>>107576083This is so clean.

>>10757611610 and 11 does that as well.
If only there was a solution to this issue.
>>107576264And if that's still too much bloat
>>107576285holy shit
>>107576264>>107576285This is based because it's open source
>>107575941Genuine question for /g/:Whats wrong with youtube this time? I use it all the time, maybe I just don't know.
>>107576285this guy's shell scripts are incredibly bloated and insane, his calibre wrapper lib-x calls calibredb and jq like one trillion times for no reason
So what's the hip chromium based os now that chrome blocks ublock?
>>107576355I'm with you man, I don't have any problems with it. I've never had to deal with ads or anything that would necessitate setting up all that bullshit on desktop.
>>1075763556 thumbnails on the home pageshorts8 thumbnails on subscription/channel pagesshorts2 thumbnails on the side of a videoai overviewshortspop-in shopping ads that have absolutely nothing to do with the video content and are probably ai-generated that adblockers haven't fixed yetshortsmaterial designshortsintentionally making the algorithm worse if you pay for premiumshorts
>>107575941I'd rather use Linux than open youtube lol
>>107576731>pay for premiumlol
>>107575941even though its a significant job im strongly considering building some kind of bolted on algorithm de-enshittifier which takes my watch history and recommends new vids. bc the algorithm as it is now is just dogshit. i dont understand how and why they've fucked it up so badly, just a few years ago it was remarkably good.
>>107576753you don't actually pay for it, they give you 2-4 months a year free if they like you
>>107576708I have ublock+ and YT nonstop for music.>>107576731>be on /g/>not using an adblocker in 2025I bet you were this fucker werent you?>
>>107576892>that adblockers haven't fixed yetcan you read? any a/b tested feature won't be fixed until gorhil or RRaLL or ublock-user gets it because they don't trust anyone else
>>107576974where did you once say any of that?
Is there an extension to just mark videos as watched without removing them? I keep liking all the videos to do this. I have my yt history turned off.
>>107576731also shorts
>>1075759411. Step 1: install Firefox mobile2. Step 2: install adblock3. Step 3: install extension to allow video play while closed4. Step 4: enjoy
>>107575941>youtube redux>ublock>sponsorblock>youtube dislikeyeap, it's youtubing time
>>107575941and where can i find those userscripts?
>>107577465SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
>>107575941not to be rude but if that's a sample of the kind of videos you're watching why even bother
>>107575941Grayjay
>>107575941my ffmpeg mpv yt-dlp doesn't need userscripts
>>107576285see >>107576625 and try ytfzf instead
>>107575941 (OP)What do anons even watch on youtube in the current year?Everything I get on my pc is fucking garbage.On my phone >90% of my subscriptions had no activity in the 5+ years since I watched anything logged-in.
