The anonymity part

It's not "ignore it", it's actively make it worse. Look at all of his coal bullshit. There's no economic reason to continue supporting coal

yet

Pfft!

For the recommendation algorithm. See my other comment

For the recommendation algorithm. I also use Grayjay but it's just the videos from your subscriptions in reverse order of when they were released.

Sponsor block and just use YouTube in the browser instead of the app

Right. I mean, I looked into this a few years ago when I set it up and just accepted my fate

You should definitely set up pihole but I don't think it'll block ads on streaming apps unless I'm wrong and someone can point me to something that explains how I can set that up.

People are literally amputating their own limbs on this corner. I don't think a ball scratch is gonna be a big deal

I have pihole and I still get ads when I stream from home

"Think of it, magnets," Trump said. "Now all I know about magnets is this, give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that's the end of the magnets. Why didn't they use John Deere? Why didn't they bring in the John Deere people? Do you like John Deere? I like John Deere."

Saved you a click

"why not just wipe them with disinfectant wipes?"

"oh, you sweet summer child"

This is exactly what I do now. But skipping ahead and back is tough when I'm listening while cooking and have raw chicken on my hands.

This is not a solution. It's like when there are too many ads on a site, stop using the site instead of just using an adblocker. Eventually I won't be able to listen to any podcasts with this "solution".

Sponsorblock does this with just regular I, not AI. E.G. crowdsourcing the sponsored segments

Of course! That's when the engine is going to over heat. If you're hot, they're hot

But every ad on every episode of every podcast can be different. Right now with pocket cast, I skip ahead 30 seconds at a time then go back 10 seconds. But I'd rather automate it

Use an alias either through Proton, simple login (which Proton bought), or Mozilla

They should put the block in place before the law gets written to rally support against it

I have a Synology NAS, and while their Synology Photos is really good, it's no match for Google Photos. It's not their fault though, any self-hosted solution is going to be harder to share photos and do collaborative albums and such. And Google Photos image and face recognition is just not matched. I backup my entire photo library to Synology Photos but most of them are also in Google Photos for ease of access and sharing.
