i tried piped for a while, but many times i tried to watch videos and they didn't start loading until i reloaded it what felt like hundreds of times. any reccomendations?

edit: Dear comrades reading this, i am not sure if it will work the same for people outside of amerikkka, but puffyan.us worked really well for me. i decided not to go with yewtu.be, as i wanted to be able to find content using my subscriptions rather than searching for topics. if that doesn't bother you, go with yewtube but puffyan worked well for me. thank you for all of the advice!

    fwiw I haven't gotten the anti adblock thing myself so I can't look, but usually they'll put just an overflow="hidden" attribute on the body tag (you can check with inspect element), so it might be possible to just reenable scrolling by removing the attribute/changing it back to overflow="scroll" with Stylus or sth

      I appreciate that but honestly no scrolling is an improvement though.

          It's interesting how much I catch myself trying to scroll down and then being like "why though? it'll be crap" because of this inability.

          Although I just figured out that if I fullscreen and un-fullscreen the video, scrolling works. So I basically have blocking with full functionality now.
