#adblocking — Public Fediverse posts

Due to Youtube shenanigans at the moment, things like YtDownloader & Cobalt.tools not working (they'll probably need a few days to adjust).

But downloading a YT video in Firefox with the Video Download Helper extension still works! So no worries about interruptions during the watch party :)

I run AdGuard on my devices. It works.

Today, I came across a website that showed me an ad. I navigated to the AdGuard plugin, and the webbrowser shut down.

Rinse – repeat.

So I went into the AdGuard app, and blocked the whole damn domain. No ads for me; no ads served for them.

You can also play an Internet Archive video on your phone & cast it to your TV (e.g. play it on an iPhone, use Airplay to cast it your Roku TV & watch it there)

Like Monsterdon, #ReMonsterdon (Sunday 10 May 19.00 UTC. Film: Silver Bullet, 1985) is a "bring-your-own-media" watch party. https://joinfediverse.wiki/Watch_party

You viewers each get the film your own way (stream, download, physical media etc), open Mastodon to the #ReMonsterdon hashtag & press Play when the host says so at the appointed time, so that hopefully everyone is in sync.

But ads in streams can get us out of sync. You can avoid that by:

• using an ad-free stream (e.g. Archive.org, Netflix)
• downloading in advance (you can probably even put the download on a flash drive to play it on your TV, if you can't connect or cast from your computer or phone to the TV)
• using the ad-blocking/ad-avoiding tips in this thread: https://ohai.social/@klu9/115245207831850566 (for me, Firefox + uBlock Origin work for most streamers except Mercado Play & Pluto)
• using physical media

You can find links in the #ReMonsterdon collection (linked below) for various ways to watch the film

• stream: Archive (ad-free), Youtube (blockable ads, USA), Pluto (ads, USA)
• download: Archive.org, Mega.nz (will be deleted soon after #ReMonsterdon), even Youtube (USA) with a tool like YtDownloader
