minus-squareScrollone@feddit.itlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 年前Hmm ad blocking is not enough, because many YouTubers sponsor Honey inside of their videos. Maybe you also use Sponsorblock.
minus-squareEngineerGaming@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 年前I use Sponsorblock, but still hear ads sometimes because it’s not applied to downloads.
minus-squareAkasazh@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 年前No I didn’t use sponsor block, I often manually skip sponsored sections. But none of the channels I follow shill for honey, apparently, and that’s a big plus.
