My 1 GB daily data bundles of 30 days from Airtel always don't last past noon( beyond that I need to subscribe to daily or hourly plan), yesterday they depleted at 10.33 am, I had to wait next day, which is today. Good morning

@JonathanMBR It would be interesting to know which % of that GB is wasted by useless ads.

@JonathanMBR good morning. That's quite a lot. With how many devices are you using the data plan? 1GB just with the phone?

@GustavinoBevilacqua yes about half, take for example when we were watching on how to make collage, and wood carvings from YouTube yesterday, we were interrupted by about 6 ads in both videos.

@JonathanMBR For you it is far better to use an invidious instance rather than youtube.https://api.invidious.io/

@GustavinoBevilacquaThere is uBlock origin, an add-on for firefox, with which you can either block ads by provided list or by individual lists that block any item you wanna block.I filter at some sites also weather forecasts, stock market, and other useless gimmicks.@JonathanMBR

@JonathanMBRYou need an addblocker. And better use alternative YT frontends. The fdroid repository provides that.@GustavinoBevilacqua

@wauz @JonathanMBR I started to hack the "hosts" file when I had a 14.400 modem under Win95 (still in beta, then), to avoid to waste precious bandwitdh.
