UBO and custom DNS works for me in FF. Sometimes I still get blocked so off to an Invidious instance I go (and they're ad-free too) to watch whatever content I was trying to view.

ETA lots of people use DNS to proxy to Albania which yt doesn't run ads for that region, they report it works fine but I haven't tried it personally

Hi there! I'm investigating places to land when lemm.ee shuts down and lemmy.zip has a great defed policy and looks like a good place. One QQ is, will I be able to connect to the instance with a VPN? The pinned thread on this post seems to suggest it's fine (try uploading the JSON with a VPN) but I want to be sure, as I don't see any mention of this in the privacy policy or other legal docs. I know some instances block them, and I understand it's to prevent abuse and ban evasion, however I use one all the time for enhanced privacy so it's fairly important to me.

Thanks so much!

I've watched over 20 hrs of gameplay on YT and the very few bugs I've seen people post have been pretty minor and likely have already been patched. The state of this game puts most AAA releases to shame. Can't wait.

I worked phone support a few years ago and did that at the end of a call with a customer. I was really tired and the person was kinda draining but nice, and for some reason my dog's face slipped into my mind as we were ending the call, who I say k-love-you-thanks-bye to all the time.

Like most any paid VPN service they need to track bandwidth usage somewhat. They can't see what you're accessing but they can see how much of whatever it is. Windscribe also offers a free 10gb/mo plan so they do track it for that purpose as well, much like any VPN with a free tier would.

Walmart also partnered with Klarna if that means anything to folks reading this. I've seen for years companies like Affirm (AFRM) being backed heavily by Shopify (they have exclusive deals at this point and AFRM is one of Klarna's direct competitors). The BNPL universe is coming for everything, including basic necessities like food now I guess. Affirm is also close with Amazon.

If you turn it on its side it's a tunnel.
