Youtube has better anti-adblock now. Other than Invidious, any way around it? Purging and re-dowloading the ublock stuff didn't work
I use FireFox + uBlock Origin, and never see ads. I did have to disable my other adblock/privacy extensions (DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, PrivacyBadger, and Ghostery) for YouTube before its anti-adblock stopped complaining, but FF+uBO seems to work just fine with default filters enabled.

YSK: Lemmy has 53k monthly active users but only 1172 have ever donated
I'm assuming 1172 is a count of donations to official mainstream servers. I have definitely contributed to my local server.

Won't employers just adopt the same workaround that they're using in Colorado, by posting a huge pay range and hiring all employees near the bottom?

Starlink quietly lost over $250,000,000 in burned satellites this summer.
Reply in thread
Since Starlink operates in Low-Earth Orbit, they shouldn't be a danger to all of the more common Geo-synchronous Orbit satellites who are 10x father from Earth than these LEO objects.

Russian State TV to Its Citizens: Be More Like North Koreans
Ah yes, the way to become unaffected by Western sanctions is to emulate the country that lives in perpetual serfdom and give up all those small luxuries you've become accustomed to before they can be taken away. Makes perfect sense!

Right-Wing Christians Must Indoctrinate Other People’s Children Into a Biblical Worldview, Says FRC’s George Barna | Right Wing Watch

Reddit keeps testing desktop UI changes ahead of its IPO
Reply in thread
They only care about monetization. If they can achieve that easier with a new UI you know they're going to do that. Old.reddit.com and the current www.reddit.com are both expendable if they can make more money without them. This is the new, publicly-traded corporation Reddit. Tradition be damned, they will make their money in whatever manner pays best.
