what are you watching first?
Extremely presumptuous that it will be a video on your platform, YouTube.
,
I installed the newer version of revanced on my SO’s phone and after a while it started just like… stopping videos out of nowhere. By that point I forgot how to reinstall it, and didnt feel like relearning all that, so unfortunately it’s back to ad city :/
Updates should have fixed that issue. I was getting it for a while too.
This is the GOAT IMHO, it is worth it even if you pay for YT premium.
Thankfully YouTube outs itself with the “most replayed” graph in the video timeline.
You can just skip right to the peak which is always right after the sponsor bit.
it even happens with paid Amazon prime now. I just started a movie, got an ad. Stopped it and restarted it, got the same ad.
Big tech is making SNAFU a reality for streaming.
Don’t happen on pirating websites, I was told
What does that stand for?
Situation normal: all fucked up
Only a jabroni would have a laptop on the kitchen table while they eat
Gatekeeping where someone can use thier laptop in their own home seems wack. Although, I’d advise to not use it in the shower.
Nothing like ad blocking and good ol piracy
It really is a joke. I remember a decade ago talking about how pirated movies were a better user experience than buying a DVD because they were making you sit through ads on the paid product before you could view it, but the pirated product just let you get to what you were watching immediately.
The whole experience is completely backward!

How’s it backwards for YouTube? You pay to not see ads. Seems like that’s what you want.
The unstoppable you wouldn’t download a car
With 3D printers, you now CAN download a car.
In the end I was finally so PO’d with my Blu Ray needing to update copyright protections and download the latest trailers before doing anything I switch to having a PC connected to my TV instead and threw out the Blu-ray.
I just wanted to sit down for a movie or dinner without screwing around or finishing my meal long before the movie even starts.
With streaming services that came later it was much easier to do that again. However with the cable-ification of the streaming services that PC on my TV is looking pretty good again…
Get a cheap chromecast, install stremio https://www.stremio.com/downloads install torrentio add on for stremio https://torrentio.strem.fun/configure
Enjoy a Netflix like experience with everything available in one place. In fact do this even if you use a pc, I just recommend chromecast because I like having a standard remote to control it.

Not using an adblocker?
Nothing, I own a room big enough for a TV.
So you’re watching ads on your TV instead?
Hopefully he is using Smart Tube Next.
Congratulations
Hell yeah

I’m on kbin so my reports go to Ernest. Any lemmings care to report this spam on my behalf?
I reported it using Sync for Lemmy, what is that though.
My bad, I didn’t even click it. Spam deleted, user banned.
I’m still seeing it :(
As I understand it, it takes time to take effect across all instances because of the nature of the fediverse. That’s why if you’re a mod it’s best to use an account registered on the same instance as the community you’re moderating. At least that’s what someone told me!
And mega-banned with all their spammy posts dispatched to the Void.
Good work mega-banner!
It was the mega-ban hammer that did the hard work.
Lol it’s funny, because it is true
