Finally. Someone asking an actual question. And I mentioned Invidious in the title.

I also sympathise with your vote remove scripts, I am altering websites to my own preference similarly.

I just find the upvote/downvote system on websites stupid. Glad we see eye to eye there.

I was going to talk about how invidious is still not true freedom from YouTube, just its crap website.

Actually, it gave me a lot more control. How it looks isn’t important to me. I cared about function. And it made it easier to have scripts made to filter the very aspect that makes YouTube addictive.

What do you do with content that Is still exclusively YouTube?

To answer that, there is nothing worthwhile for me to bother watching. There is nothing exclusive to YouTube, that I want to bother with. I downloaded over 100 James Julier Videos for safe keeping. And that’s all I really needed from YouTube.

And a big point of critique, that bold end quote, its a hyper common AI structure statement of “it’s not this, - it’s that” ai does it all the bloody time, it’s cringe and makes me feel sick. Ai is horrible at this kind of rallying message.

Yeah. I was lazy with that last part. Though, I did write the rest myself. But I accept AI is ruining the web anyways; along with the bots. It’s why I turned to RSS with Odysee, Peertube and Bit-chute. I hardly even web browse as it is.
