For IOS peeps: I’m using Orion browser, which supports some firefox entensions like UblockOrigin that blocks ads. Brave also works.

Downside is they’re missing a good number of features, and changing playback speed messes up the audio

There used to be a trick where you can skip ads in youtube app by pretending to report it. i’ve used that to skip the 2x30s unskippable ads over the years, but that was patched recently.

So instead of occasionally watching ads while scrolling through comments, I’ve now opt to watch youtube in browser with UblockOrigin. And good luck to google for playing catch-22 with adblockers.

Shame that I used to have youtube in my adblock whitelist

I'm one of those guys, IOS phone with windows PC. There really isn't much out there that is as convenient as IOS, but theres no way I would use a Mac, as compatibility issues and more expensive hardware will ultimately hurt functionality.

In this case its quite simple: the production process is cheap and easy enough anyone with a garage can replicate it in a week, where as flying to Korea takes weeks for visa and plane ticket and appointments scheduling

Changing even a single letter will completely scramble your password with hash, so for all intents and purpose it is equivalent to a unique password

Though I do admit it can get a bit tedious, I'll definitly look into self-hosting, thanks for the recommendation

I don't use them. I see this as a putting all eggs in one basket strategy, if my master password was lost, hacked, hosting company shutdown, or for whatever reason refuse to do business with me, my entire life would be screwed.

Instead I use long passwords made of words, and for each site it will be a few letters off. They're easy for humans to remember because how similar they are, but due how hash works they are equivalent to unique passwords to hackers.
