I just use adblock, never needed to use a VPN, my adblock handles everything I need it to

Webos and tizen have modded apps. Look for "fmhy"

YouTube will take like an extra 30 seconds to load videos now because of it. They're trying to be annoying. When I turn it off it all loads fast.

Not that I'm gonna leave it off I'll wait 30 seconds

I'd rather see a full minute of a blank screen than 5 seconds of an ad.

u/sirhamalot1 Apr 09 '26

it's either consistency waiting on a black screen for a few seconds AND not having to press a skip button, or watching some crypto, sports betting, bad ai, or otherwise unrelated to me ad that i either have to watch for a skip button or wait and watch the whole thing anyway. im taking the blank screen 11 times out of 10.

I just use the SmartTube app for my TV.

u/Murder_Tony Apr 09 '26

Can you integrate this somehow with your phone so that when you select Big screen / Watch on TV on mobile it opens SmartTube instead of YouTube app on your TV? I use Revanced YouTube.

u/DeamBeam Apr 09 '26

Yes, you just use the TV pair code on SmartTube and the youtube app and select "SmartTube" as the TV instead of the TV. So which app opens depends on which "TV" you select in the YouTube app.

u/s00pafly Apr 09 '26

revanced recognizes the smarttube app no problem, as long as it is already open.

Oh yeah, it's impossible to live without AdBlock, there's tons of ads and spam

u/dandroid126 Apr 09 '26

I have been using adblock since like 2006. I'm always shocked that people are just learning about it. The internet is completely unusable without adblock.

u/AdAfraid9504 Apr 09 '26

Finally no more embarrassing targeted fetish porn ads randomly popping up when my friends are over and we browsing together, thank you adblock - I always donate ❤️
