A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You aren't doing youtube correctly.

PC: firefox + ublock origin, freetube

Mobile: revanced, newpipe

For iOS, since there’s no easy app based method to block YouTube ads: fire up a VPN connection to Albania. Streaming ads are illegal in Albania.

How does one Rick roll people who don’t do YouTube correctly, which is most everyone?

Those people? We don't interact with those people.

FreeTube has an Android fork now that works just as well as the PC version.

Freetube has been failing consistently on all my desktops lately. None of the instances on the main site work. Can you verify it's till working and maybe DM me the instance you're using?
