This is sadly a much more likely scenario

I replaced the YouTube app on my SO’s phone with a Brave Browser YouTube link (Brave includes both features out of the box) because having to sit through ads when they wanted to show me a video was driving me nuts…

I use Firefox because of tamper monkey, buy Brave is my go to easy solution for friends so I don’t have to explain about installing extras.

TIL, that’s a great tip! cheers

Disco Elysium is the game that instantly came to mind. Basically all story that is brilliantly written with incredible voice acting. I hope OP checks it out.

That was the exact reason I left BoA and joined a credit union. Plenty of other good reasons to do it, but that actually got me motivated enough to make a switch.

Card Hunter is an excellent trpg/ deck builder that has card based actions. Excellent single player with multilayer options that I haven’t explored much because I generally need to be able to pause for extended periods, but it seems solid enough (no idea if there is an active community though).

You can pay to skip ahead, but I had a great time never paying for anything. Probably put 100 hrs plus in.

This is the message they are sending to users:

Hey u/username,

We will soon begin rolling out changes to Reddit’s User settings. It is getting a refresh that includes changes to ad personalization, privacy preferences, and location settings.

As part of these changes, we are retiring a setting that you have previously turned on that limited how we used your activity from the Reddit platform to personalize ads. We have replaced the setting with a new option to select categories of ads that you may not wish to see.

More details are available in our announcement and help center.

These changes are rolling out starting today and you may see the changes over the next few days.

A true miracle

So long... I'll not be returning (lemmy.ml)

I’ve used most available services, but discontinued one after another along with promises that a better user experience will be provided with reduced content and removed functionality with the slight price hike. YouTube was my first and last video service I paid for, only Spotify remains on the borderline.

On Android just use Brave browser and turn on the setting to allow tabs to play media in the background. Opera does the same thing.

Not sure what iOS options there are.

I hate how everything requires you to download a shitty proprietary data harvesting app nowadays when everything can be done just fine without an app.

I have recently started a new position and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy in order to get your food when it would literally work perfectly fine ordering to a real cashier or shit even a website rather than having to...

Seriously email your IT and/or privacy team at the university level. I work at a university and that would be removed ASAP for sharing PII. If you’re in the US or UK it’s a major violation of your privacy. Unfortunately most IT offices aren’t involved in many of the decisions and many of the people making those decisions are complete ignorant to the situation.

It’s by far the best mobile browser that let’s you run tampermonkey and uBlock on Android and it’s not close. I haven’t found an add-on that let’s me run video/audio in the background, so until then Brave stays installed so that running YouTube with no ads and the phone locked is an option.

Aside from that, Firefox gives fantastic customization options, runs well, and is less vulnerable to attacks specifically because it has a smaller market share and it makes more sense to target Chromium based browsers.

The tank game on Wii Sports (reminiscent of Atari Tanks but coop)

PS1 Final Fantasy Tactics (especially with mods, particularly FFT 1.3)

PC Master of Magic (especially with community mods, Caster of Magic is a favorite)
