A while back, youtube banned the use of adblockers. I've been watching the thumbnails instead. I was clearly not the only one because they then stopped the thumbnails from autoplaying. This must have led to a backlash so they reversed their policy, but now they've removed the ability to click on the time bar on the thumbnails. So you have to sit through the bits you dont want. Anything to worsten the experience so that we're more likely to watch the ads or buy the premium.
But I dont want to do that.
So I have repurposed this old post so that if there's a vid i want to watch, I can embed it here. Can't full screen it from here, but it is bigger than the thumnail version, and I can skip around the timeline.
A minor and possibly temporary victory against the ravages of late stage capitalism.
