I watch YouTube with no ads: none (unless they're embedded in the video by the video creator).

I watch YouTube with the FireFox browser (no apps), to which I've added the "Enhancer for YouTube", "uBlock Origin", and "Disable HTML5 Autoplay" extensions. This works for me on Linux and Mac.

I use this setup both logged-in (Google), and not logged-in. No ads, either way.

YouTube has quietly added a feature where multiple people can add videos to the same playlist. I've always wanted something like this built into the app.

Here is the invite. Add any videos you actually watch today that you don't mind sharing.

Sadly you must be logged in to youTube to do this.

Will this be a mess? Let's see!

(I've always wanted a recommended video feature that was based on what people I knew *actually watched* to create a shared media library.)

@futurebird i tried adding a video and received this message (it never happened to me before, and i'm not using anything different this time). no way in hell i'm giving google access to my cookies

why can't they give me a nice thing for a change

@chessert @futurebird

I use Firefox and a Youtube account. And just found out that adding something to the shared playlist requires me to give Google access to my cookies.

@billiglarper @futurebird

Odd. I don't enable any cookies on YT (at all, other than signing in with my Google account), and am able to create my own private playlists at will. Is that the difference: private vs. public?

@coracinho

Yeah, a lot of people on here probably have google locked out in ways that might keep them from using this.

And good for you honestly.

To have "nice things" we need to keep on building our own systems and giving money to the people doing that work.

It's a LOT of work and we don't really support it enough at this time.

@chessert @billiglarper

I think there must be.

I have to have google cookies for my job so I don't have that firewall up for better or worse.
