Recently Freetube, which I mainly use for Youtube stopped working and I had a pleasure to open Youtube link in incognito mode. Adverts popping up on the beginning of every video, in random moments while video was playing and when switching to specific timestamp made me realize how much I should be thankful for adblockers and alternative frontends.

xelar@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•When You Block the Internet on Your Phone, Something Astonishing Happens MentallyEnglish2·2 months agoIt’s always interesting when people from the Internet meet in-person. It should happen more often to the point when the people become friends and exchange it to real life socialising.
The demand is there and keeps increasing. I even thought about some platform where people from reddit/lemmy type of platform do stuff together like sports, outdoor, going to pub or something like that. I’m writing here about non-mainstream solutions.
melodysheep - quality animations about universe, earth
thinmatrix - cozy, solo gamedev videos
- BizarreBub - 20 mins scary compilations (better than Chills, Nuke5s,Top5s,Dark5 combined imo)
- Chilling Scares - spooky stories, videos
Both guys go straight to the point with no intros and sponsor blocks.

xelar@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Insiders say cutting-edge graphics are too costly for AAA gamesEnglish171·4 months agoWhat about destructible environment, physics, attention to details?
All what I see nowadays are mediocre products in flashy packaging. Consumers seem to prioritize aesthetics over quality; if a game is colorful and visually appealing, it often sells well. Whats up with freedom of jumping on that crate, blowing up that wall, shooting up the props etc.
At times, it feels as though I am confined within an enclosure, where the visuals and sounds serve merely to distract me from this realization.
