Wouldn’t you have to do it constantly?

Is there a reason why you are not using the regular youtube? Just curious since I currently use YouTube website signed out on iOS. Invidious does not have recommendations aswell.

X is unusable without an account, It always nags you to make one no matter what.

Love that you mentioned Libredirect! I don’t like how maps redirects to OpenStreetMap though, why not just redirect to Duck Maps, which uses Apple Maps.

I just watch YouTube signed out in Safari. It is very easy to build your algorithm from there. I don’t mind the ads since I don’t watch YouTube mainly on my phone and I occasionally clear cookies.

You can also install Orion Browser, made by Kagi creators of a privacy focused paid search engine, which supports Firefox extensions like uBLock but I don’t think it is open source right now but It will be soon.

What’s the point of using Return YouTube Dislike if it’s not accurate?

Opsec requires sacrifices. Friends ruin opsec.

Never install an app like Instagram on your phone, It will know your device even if you uninstall the app or use a different IP.

How old are you? Nobody uses email for regular chat

Get a new phone number and never sign it up on anything. It is very easy to replace a phone number. If you have had a phone number for multiple years and signed it up multiple times and still using it, it is time to change it now.

Blocking somebody on social media doesn’t really mean anything, they still have your account, can still see your posts, comments, and even liked videos if they use another account. You would have to delete your account if some random person has your personal Instagram that you don’t want anybody knowing, even if it is private.

They both have there downsides though.

I agree with you. Social media has been normalized and you are not fit in society if you don’t have any at all.
