It has sponsorblock too. This is the simplest solution.

Vinegar is a safari extension that gives you premium’s features. I’m almost certain it can do at least 1080 if not higher.

[–] koosh@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

vinegar is a great option for safari. for a YouTube app experience uyou+ and side loading is the way to go.

Install Vinegar: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/vinegar-tube-cleaner/id1591303229

Pulls the actual video file from YT, stripping ads, overlays, and anything else YT shoves into them. Literally a game changer on Apple devices.

On iOS

Look for altstore or similar

[–] cccc@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Brave removes ads.

But also… it’s Brave which I’m learning is not the most ethical choice.

[–] ruben@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why not Firefox with uBlock Origin?

[–] eek2121@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Firefox on iOS is reskinned safari. Normal Firefox extensions don’t work.

As someone very uninformed about Brave, what is unethical about it?

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Their weird crypto rewards system is what turns me off the most.

[–] smyth@mastodon.social 1 points 1 year ago

@Evkob @Anders429

Pretty easy to ignore it. I use it off and on.

[–] NicoCharrua@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you're willing to go through the pain of sideloading on iOS and you're ok with giving a random app your Google account, uYou+ is pretty good.

[–] Quik@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

*And if you’re okay with having a Google account, because you need one in the app, but not on the website

This is the way! I’m using it too with a piped instance. Also configured the RSS feed to a Slack channel with yattee://watch?v={videoId} which works awesome. When I press the link, when a new video is posted, it opens in Yattee. Basically I have a privacy focused YouTube with no ads and with subscriptions.

[–] ANIMATEK@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is what I very much tried. Is the best option out there, but unfortunately the “discover” of new content is really lacking compared to YouTube’s algorithm.

[–] willya@lemmyf.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Yep, only real way to feed you stuff you’d like is to monitor stuff you like.

[–] zedricxks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

use sideloadly https://sideloadly.io/ and download the ipa from here: https://github.com/arichorn/uYouPlusExtra once you set it up all you need is to literally open sideloadly once a week on your pc/mac and hit refresh while the iphone/ipad is connected to the same wifi. apple doesnt let you add apps for longer than week unless you pay to be a developer so a 30second job to refresh the app and ur done.

@zedricxks @T2Medium

Drive-by thanks for this, though I did kill some time getting it to work. Any fav IPAs?

[–] zedricxks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

no worries. i use infuse (suffuse on github) and then this repo has alot of ipas https://github.com/swaggyP36000/TrollStore-IPAs the retroarch or delta game emulator dolphini is a dolphin emulator apollo reddit sideloaded being brought back fromt eh dead for reddit https://balackburn.github.io/Apollo/ but i always have suffuse youtube apollo and i rotate in and out the myfitnesspal app thats cracked. take a look at the trollstore ipe link it has alot. also the sideloaded subreddit has many

[–] Quik@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

Delta is an impressive Game Emulator not normally allowed in the App Store and Enmity is a nice Discord client modification

[–] eek2121@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I use Yattee. It should be on the app store. Requires a bit of setup, but works great.

[–] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 3 points 1 year ago

pin any invidious instance as a webapp in home

some instances allow to register and follow channels

[–] Pulp@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Sideload or jailbreak depending on device

[–] Gamey@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There are ways to sideload apps on iOS but I think you need a Macbook to do so, I had a iPhone once because I got it for free and I will never touch one of those ever again!

[–] Pulp@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can use Windows or Linux too

[–] Gamey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Interesting, seems like there is a Linux app now too, well still not a fan of externak devices just to sideload but luckily the EU will improve that with the Digital markets act I guess

Weird firefox automatically redirected me to the non amp link

Been using VideoLite a lot, there’s a single ad that plays as you open it, and then you’re set. Optionally you can pay £1.59 every three months and skip that initial ad.
