A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

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!
I hadn't realised it had been compiled for desktop. I've mainly been using it(well rather the fork with SponsorBlock) for a while now on Android since I can't just simply adblock the main app on an unrooted phone.
You might consider looking at invidious.
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.
Thank you!
It looks like FreeTube actually has the option to route through invidious for all of those benefits. That's really cool!
