A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I give up, this has really let me down.
You aren't doing youtube correctly.
PC: firefox + ublock origin, freetube
Mobile: revanced, newpipe
FreeTube has an Android fork now that works just as well as the PC version.

Are you rick-rolling yourself? Derp.
How does one Rick roll people who don’t do YouTube correctly, which is most everyone?
Those people? We don't interact with those people.
Touché
Honestly, I have Firefox + ublock origin in Mobile too
I have all 3 options on mobile as well
Same.
Watch this vid for a good explanation on how to avoid the issue:

Oh, oh, oh! Thanks! I think I'll click on it right now.

I can't believe I'm about to suggest this, but use a YouTube short version since those don't have ads.
Wow, a legitimate use case for shorts.
Nice! May I recommend you share that with all of our professional rickrollers? (Or may I share it there?)
I've literally rickrolled thousands of people and i didn't hesitate for a second to click on that link. wow. (~﹏~;)
Go for it!
You could try SoundCloud, been spending a lot more time over there lately.
Wasn't there someone who bought youtube ads and had the ad be a rick roll?
