Getting a sponsorblock error 502, but working otherwise. 2.2.2 came out 12 hours ago, updating now to check it all again. Here is the YouTube version I’m using.

minus-squareLets_Disco@retrolemmy.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0arrow-down1·3 months agoI know Brave is a big no no in these woods but they offer an option to select your own Content Filtering lists and one of those is Youtube Shorts. Fantastic privacy feature. Also they have Paywall Blocker, AI Suggsstion Blocker… Etc etc
minus-squarethermal_shock@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0arrow-down1·edit-23 months agoSmarttube will block shorts, works best on TVs and large screen devices. YouTube revanced will as well, make sure you download the right one, lots of fakes out there. https://old.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/1pebuhd/simplest_way_to_get_the_official_revanced_youtube/ Not sure if you can filter out shorts within browsers with something like ublock origin filters, may need to look into it. Shorts are literally brainrot. Fuck tiktok, fuck shorts.
