Brave browser adds option to block YouTube Playables in settings:
https://alternativeto.net/news/2026/1/brave-browser-adds-option-to-block-youtube-playables-in-settings/
(I play da YouTube game. I "pirate" stuff with FreeTube and yt-dlp, use VPN when I get IP block, use Invidious when FreeTube and yt-dlp break. Also have an Android-x86 VM just to have NewPipe as a fallback. Now that's the game.)
(Actually someone should make a YouTube Piracy Simulator game where the player can collect score by watching or downloading videos using 3rd party tools (could work similarly like those simple mobile games where players need to tap on resources to collect them). The enemy is YouTube, final boss is DRM lmao)

Ich habe vor allem #GoogleDrive, neben halt meinen Offline-Downloads, als mein "Off-Site-Backup" genutzt, aber dafür werde ich wohl entweder #ProtonDrive oder #MEGA nutzen, wenn nicht sogar beides.
