If you don’t have this kit you will be bombarded to Temu’s ads

I’d actually recommend consent-o-matic instead of IDCAC. It actually selects the minimum concent for you instead of just hiding it.
IDCAC should not be on this list since it was compromised, ABP-style. consent-o-matic is probably better but the most direct replacement is “I Still Don’t Care About Cookies”.
Doesn’t the “EasyList/uBO – Cookie Notices” filter in uBlock’s settings do the same thing as IDCAC / consent-o-matic?
Sigh
Invidious hasn’t been working for most of this year, so this doesn’t seem like a 2024 guide.
Download jerboa
Why don’t you download something like Voyager or Thunder from f-droid?
Phone settings > Private DNS > set DNS provider host name to dns.adguard-dns.com.
Problem solved.
Try out boost (for Lemmy), and if you like it there’s a small one time payment option to support the Dev and remove ads
What’s the upside down Z-Library icon in the lower left for YT?
Idk it’s not NewPipe or Grayjay
archive.is or archive.ph is what I use for getting past paywalls. If it’s a hard membership paywall there won’t be much you can do about it. If it’s just a splash screen, they work by removing the annoying stuff that prevents you from going further since they have to package the content for SEO. The archive sites basically grab that content as if they were going to index it for a search engine, but then they present it in human readable format instead.
DONT use the “I Don’t Care About Cookies” plugin. It was sold to Avast. The same company that stole users information and sold it ON A PRIVACY PRODUCT illegally for years causing them to get sued for 16 million. (slap on the wrist tbh)

What is “No need YT ads” and the “Ctrl+P”?
Ctrl P is to print a page. The idea is you quickly press print before the paywall loads, so you can read the full article
Lemmy could be better…
Care to provide more information?
I don’t like the federation part of it
I wish every instance was separate
Would it work if you only browsed local posts, and logged in to each instance separately?
Still susceptible to mass misinformation campaigns
Isn’t everything susceptible to such “attacks”?
If you spread the internet across millions of websites with 10k users or less then the campaigns become ineffective and inefficient
ublock origin has a cookie notice and nag filter that removes those.
go into the settings and turn on the annoyance filters, they are awesome.
Also FWIW you should care about cookies. That said, I use that filter in UBO but I’m wondering if using it is the same as hitting “reject all” or “accept all”? Does it even matter if you’re using Firefox and thus isolating cookies regardless?
UBO can block YT ads, no need to use a seperate ad blocker for YT
I use uBlock Origin on Firefox and I’ve never even seen the semblance of an ad.
Are you using Chrome, and have they implemented V3, yet?
Currently V3 is in Canary channel or maybe in Beta but surely not (yet) in the stable version.
Sponsorblock to auto skip sponsor segments, or even non music parts of music on YouTube. Or interaction reminders, or end credits, etc can make it a little bit how you want it
Drop IDCAC and Privacy Badger, add consent-o-matic, sponsorblock and bypass paywall clean.
Check Arkenfox for Firefox config and extension recommendations.

Only use temp mails for unimportant, one-shot account, otherwise use an email relay.
Why drop privacy badger? It’s been working well for me.
Because it doesn’t bring anything more than Firefox in strict mode and uBlock Origin.
FF blocks Facebook et al widgets in strict mode now? This is news to me, news indeed. Thanks for the tip
Not exactly.
uBlock Origin blocks the widgets (with the “EasyList – Social Widgets” blocklist, I don’t remember if it’s on by default). As would any other blocklist based blocked do like Privacy Badger, uBO is just better.
FF’s strict mode has something called Total Cookie Protection that makes it so Facebook widget on site A cannot read the cookie dropped by the Fackebook widget on site B. It isolate 3rd party cookies for each website.
