Use Firefox Nightly, Ublock origin and LocalCDN. I never see adds. I use yandex for a search engine.

This isn't about ads. This about blocking youtube from flooding search results with MSM garbage.

Turn off your fucking watch history.
It will hold any subs you have

[ - ] Nosferatjew 6 points 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 22:44:23 ago (+6/-0)

This has nothing to do with watch history. A few years ago, youtube began heavily pushing msm channels in search results as a way of combatting "misinformation".

Suit yourself

[ - ] Nosferatjew 4 points 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 22:53:18 ago (+4/-0)

I will, however, this is not about my personal preferences. I'm just trying to inform of how youtube functions now.

My youtube shows me mostly what I want to see. It stops showing me stuff I haven't watched or clicked on in awhile. I've been banned for years, but it's still watching my current interests. I don't see ads because of uMatrix.

Just refreshed a youtube tab and there's no msm. 60 to 70% current interests. I rarely search on youtube though.

I'm not talking about ads or about what youtube recommends to you on your home page or in the sidebar of videos you're watching. I am talking specifically about search results. Try searching for anything related to current events, particularly those that are political in nature.

[ - ] Sector2 0 points 7 monthsSep 13, 2024 12:45:52 ago (+0/-0)

Right, that's why I don't search political stuff on youtube. Results would be some jewish bullshit, whether it's the harris or trump flavor. If I do search, it's more for a video of a current event like a volcano, car crash, or whatever.

Hide shorts for youtube. That sounds nice.

Now that tiktok goes up to one minute they are going to kill. Does anyone remember the Wadsworth constant? Basically all videos should be about 2:45 in length. More broadly 1:00-7:00. Well on youtube they try to push onto you 7 seconds and 20:00+, the most useless video times.

Get blocktube.

[ - ] Belfuro 2 points 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 20:58:34 ago (+2/-0)

I get so many ads on my tv YouTube.

Google banned me from using why this ad, stop seeing this ad feature.

So now i exit video. Back in. Exit. Back in.etc untill no ads or a 5 sec ad.

Fuck em

[ - ] Sector2 3 points 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 23:14:29 ago (+3/-0)

I get zero ads. Use uMatrix.

[ - ] texasblood 2 points 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 22:18:17 ago (+2/-0)

Turn your history off,they can't loop your shit.
You'll get short 15sec ads but not like you get when they have your history

Appreciate tip wigger

What did this do specifically?

[ - ] Dr_Mx 1 point 7 monthsSep 12, 2024 21:19:03 ago (+1/-0)

Pretty sure this project died about 3-4 years ago.

[ - ] Rastafoo [op] 3 points 7 monthsSep 13, 2024 00:21:32 ago (+3/-0)

I don't think so. I've been using it for years and it only stopped working after the Kamala v Trump Debate

[ - ] Dr_Mx 0 points 7 monthsSep 13, 2024 20:29:29 ago (+0/-0)

Oh, I tried to follow the domain in your screenshot but it was down and the Wayback Machine only had archives from 2021. I did find a github repository but that hadn't been updated in a long time. Maybe it just stopped working due to lack of maintenance.
