Why do this? Because surveillance capitalism wants you to be less free. It wants you to be glued to the screen. It wants you to buy whatever advertisers want you to buy. But you can fight back by deliberately poisoning your data.

    Pipepipe supersedes newpipe doesn’t it? That’s what I’m using anyhow.

      Pipepipe is a hard fork of newpipe. I prefer it myself because of sponsorblock and the danmaku comments.

      Those are niconicodouga style comments across the video.

      Niconicodouga is a Japanese video sharing platform similar to YouTube in function and age. I think it’s older even.

        That’s what that’s called? I remember being so annoyed by that and forgetting how I solved it lol.

        Ya from what I recall newpipe was broken for a good amount of time and someone forked to pipepipe and it seems updated more frequently.
