Edit: Replaced “Restrictions” in place of the word “Ban”

    Start watching YouTube in Firefox, I guess. I can’t deal with ads and I’m not paying one of the richest companies in the world an ever increasing monthly fee for the rest of my life.

      Were you not supposed to use firefox?

      I’ve always been using firefox + unlock origin, never messed with apps because they are annoying.

          See, the way I’m thinking about it is that, I like my browsing to be non-persistent.

          Ideally (if I actually remember to do OPSEC correctly that is), I would clear browsing data before leaving my house, so if some cop seizes it, they won’t be able to see all the stuff I watched, just a clean browser, same with Lemmy, it gets logged out and data cleared before I go somewhere I deem insecure. Apps can leave residues/temp-files. I just don’t like the idea of “Apps”.

          (And of course, all traffic goes through VPN, and for Lemmy, also TOR.)

        I also use Firefox focus as my default browser, but it doesn’t do ublock origin unfortunately. But everything is temporary for all those one off links you probably open.
