Ublock origin on firefox. Never forced an update, never did any fiddling with block lists. Never got a single warning or notification, still works perfectly. Huh.

I don’t even have to torrent, I have like 3 sites I can just go to, search for content on, and stream video from like a shittier netflix. Adblock keeps them relatively sane, and I sometimes have to try different server sources, but otherwise it works fine.

I use it on android, so I cant speak for ios, but this is their github page: https://github.com/revanced/revanced-manager

To clarify, its less a virus running from watching, and more “check out this useless software plz click me” and the software is bloatware that wants a bunch of permissions to suck up data. Or ads for psuedo pyramid schemes or “lose weight fast” sort of shit.

So virus is probably the wrong term, technically. But bloatware, useless garbage, and scams, absolutely.

ReVanced. Youtube ads are either scams or viruses half the time, and they’re exhausting mentally to deal with. I’ll buy merch from people I want to support, because fuck google.

Dorfromantic: chill satistying game about building a landscape out of tiles, and matching biomes/rivers to get more points.

Minecraft on peaceful: I like to do weird redstone projects in creative too.

Titanfall 2/old school shooters: its weird but I blast music and play stuff that I can do mindlessly. And for me that’s deathmatch style shooters, where there’s no objective or anything, the respawn time is short, and you just run aroind blasting stuff.

Open world games with time wasting sidequests: So most assassins creed games, corrupted zones/trials in HZD, wandering skyrim, etc.

Edit: forgot, Mario Kart, its just fun and silly and I don’t mind just doing dumb shit and coming in last, so long as I hit koopa troopa with all the red shells because its dumb and I’m attacking him with his own brethren!

I really hope they release Steam OS for everyone soon. I’d love to install it on my laptop, currently running ChimeraOS which is functionally very similar, but would love to have the stuff like tdp control working in the overlays too without needing third party tools or workarounds.
