Only if you don’t value your time.

There’s nothing free in this world. You’re paying with your attention and at least metadata, independently on how many blockers you may use.

Thank you, Mr. Obvious. Now you can go back to YT as well.

There’s a “block” button somewhere in Lemmy’s interface, under my profile. Just use it and go back swallowing crappy YT videos.

I prefer to read books. Thanks. By the way, the fact that you need adblocker an sponsorblock to enjoy a few videos speaks volumes.

I literally never watch a YouTube videos, as they are just a waste of time. For a given video on a given topic, the same amount of information can be obtained by a decently written blog or article that can be read in a 1/10 of the time it takes to watch q video filled by nonsense blabbering and sponsored segments for revenues. In some extreme cases, if the topic seems really, really , REALLay interesting, I may ask an LLM to summarize the video for me. People should stop linking YouTube videos altogether.

Wonderful for when playing FPS on a console with a pad.

You can somewhat exclude websites from results if you self host SearXNG, but only by modifying configuration files… Which is a bit annoying.

Love how some people pretend to be special or unique here. And most likely just for fake karma points.
