Comment on PrivacyGuides@Lemmy.one: What are benefits for using privacy friendly frontends for apps like Reddit and YouTube compared to accessing them and using UBlock Origin?

For me I can’t go back to the normal YouTube client. I use freetube on pc and tubular on mobile (broken right now so is newpipe). My biggest thing I love is not getting recommendations from YouTube. I have it set to only pull people I am subscribed to. This has saved me so much time from just scrolling and being like “I could watch that”. Not exactly privacy related but it has saved me countless hours watching something.
