These are the uBlock rules used to block the headers from youtube channels. The 'about' tab is intentionally left unfiltered for the cases I actually want to see that information.

Adblockers can do more than just block ads, they also allow you to customize websites. As a simple example you can remove the annoying headers on youtube channels that take half the screen:

It's also great for news sites. I have a filter to remove articles on topics I don't care about. I also have rules to prevent these sites from automatically reloading after certain amount of time, something that I find very annoying.

Hello everyone! Let's discuss how to grow our community [META] in c/feddit_nl

I joined feddit.nl because it has the least amount of blocked servers. If I don't like a community I block it myself. The minute it starts behaving like lemmy.world I'm out.

There are two Linux paradigms that I consider stupid. One is the use of centralized software repositories managed by the distro instead of individual developer maintained installers. The other one is file system case sensibility. They already admitted defeat on the first one with the rise of containerised applications. I wonder how much longer they'll keep the charade on the second one.

The Minecraft wiki has been moved from Fandom to Minecraft.wiki in c/games@lemmy.world

I was playing a Souls game while checking some info from Fandom on my phone. Unbeknownst to me the site was eating all my mobile data because of a live twitch stream playing on a muted and invisible player. Fuck those fuckers.

Hollywood studios, writers near agreement to end strike, hope to finalize deal Thursday, sources say in c/news@lemmy.world

Bill Maher and Drew Barrymore knew. They didn't mind going back to work if the negotiations stalled for a long time but when they discovered the strike was close to ending they realized it was stupid to take such a PR hit just to save a few days of shooting.
