These are the uBlock rules used to block the headers from youtube channels. The 'about' tab is intentionally left unfiltered for the cases I actually want to see that information.

edit: had to put the code on pastebin since the code markdown doesn't seem to work here.
Adblockers can do more than just block ads, they also allow you to customize websites. As a simple example you can remove the annoying headers on youtube channels that take half the screen:
It's also great for news sites. I have a filter to remove articles on topics I don't care about. I also have rules to prevent these sites from automatically reloading after certain amount of time, something that I find very annoying.
I was playing a Souls game while checking some info from Fandom on my phone. Unbeknownst to me the site was eating all my mobile data because of a live twitch stream playing on a muted and invisible player. Fuck those fuckers.
Bill Maher and Drew Barrymore knew. They didn't mind going back to work if the negotiations stalled for a long time but when they discovered the strike was close to ending they realized it was stupid to take such a PR hit just to save a few days of shooting.
Bud light wasn't canceled, it was boycotted.
Here’s a video of someone actually building something like that to play a chess match.
Here’s the Copyright Office’s response for anyone interested.

Linux Hater’s Blog was half satire and half honest criticism.
This reminds me of the old linux hater’s blog post “At least we don’t have any viruses”.
It’s hard to find a name because nowadays people often use terms like ‘bigotry’, ‘hate speech’ and ‘bad faith’ to refer to anything they don’t like so they can shut down discussions.
And those who want to review every single one manually can still do that.
But will they? This tool promotes blindly trusting another instance block list without due diligence from the admin.
this process and improves Lemmy’s capability to protect it’s users from spam and brigading
That assumes defederation only happens in those cases. You have an account from lemmy.world, so I guess you trust that instance. You know, the same instance that preemptively defederated from hexbear.net for political reasons. You see the problem?
This is a terrible idea that steers lemmy into being an echo chamber. Let admins use their own judgement.
Let’s see…
They may create text which appears to human eyes like the result of thinking, reasoning, or understanding, but it is in fact anything but.
For generation of fictional text and images that’s fine.
There is a pack mentality in rushing to invest in these tools, while overlooking the fact that they threaten workers
Like any other case of automation in the history of society.
[…] and impact consumers by creating lesser quality products
That sounds very subjective.
and allowing more erroneous outputs.
Large language models should not be used as a source of facts, that’s why they all warn you about their limitations. LLMs are tools and should be used properly. A blow torch can get your balls burnt if used improperly.
