it's a new thing meant to be adblock proof i think. like, you also will now notice pulsating black ball and small links in the uppe left corner of a video player

its not an ad, tho, its a subset of related videos that you would normally get at the end of the video. it prevents you from having to fast forward to the end of the video to see them. idk why they didn't just put a button to show related vids on the player instead tho

nobody would click that button. you know how grocery stores have racks of candy at the checkout counters? same thing; it's about impulse buying

I thought that was a feature of the awful app when I first saw it, good to know.

On top of adblock are there any other privacy/security extensions that yospos finds favorable? I'm currently using Disconnect and HTTPS Everywhere on my desktop now, and am planning to switch away from ABP soon.

i use ublock and disconnect and only occasionally get irritated by things (usually an upgrade breaks tweet embedding on the forums or something like that, and i have to re-whitelist it)

abp is tire fire for years now. switch to ublock or umatrix. the latter also does the https enforcement if need be. and just then enable a bunch of lists furiously maintained by greybeards

ublock origin gets those no problem for me

but make sure you've also got the "uBlock origin extra" extension, which is responsible for blocking things that come in through websockets:
