I've been using this on android for more than 6 years. Love being able to quickly download a local copy of video or music as I'm boarding a flight or train. Highly recommend getting it using fdroid instead of apk because there have been points when youtube made changes that break the app and you'll need to get the latest update

This is exactly what I used it for last time; downloading videos before boarding a flight.

Why would that be something that you would want?
fariss · 2 years ago
To avoid bias, maintain objectivity, and focus on my personal interests and professional responsibilities without being influenced by any political affiliations or agendas.

Me personally? I just don't engage time wasting morons. (The fact that I'm engaging with you means I don't put you in the "time wasting moron" category.)

Maybe a better way to say this is "you don't have to engage people who don't share your political bent."

Thanks for the nice reply.

Sometimes it is not that easy to just ignore what is going and pretend the world is at peace. I find myself taking a stance unconsciously..

I wonder if this will be abused by malware authors in some way.

fariss commented on Ask HN: What browser extensions are a must-have in 2021?    · Posted by u/johnnyApplePRNG
Jaruzel · 4 years ago
My de-facto set of extensions:

- uBlock Origin

- Cookie AutoDelete

- "I Don't Care About Cookies" (It auto-OKs cookie consent banners)

- Archive.org's Wayback Machine (A must have in this era of link rot)

Optional:

- Tablist (easily lets me copy out all the URLs of open tabs for 'later')

- User Agent Switcher (Needed less these days, but useful for exploring the DOM of mobile versions of sites)

Additionally, I have written a launcher for Chrome that creates shortcuts for Chrome with the --user-data-dir parameter[1] to enable me to have 100% isolated browser identities. I create and tear these down on regular basis. I started doing this, when I realised that multiple Incognito mode sessions running simultaneously actually share the same cookies and local storage.

You can check out Tab Stash. It is a great add on to stash your tabs for later use.
