As with the fediverse, there are a lot of user curated blacklists to get rid of the problem children.

Just don’t trust shinigamieyes, that shit got taken over by terfs a few years back and now lists a lot of innocent trans bloggers.

Pihole at home with a personal VPN (wireguard, tailscale, head scale, etc) that routes all your phone traffic through it.

Works pretty good, and you can always add additional blacklists if something still gets through.

For an embarrassingly long time I thought they were the same person, and I wondered why anyone would look up to that tool, and call him a genius, when he couldn’t even benchmark an HDMI cable correctly (literally the only video of his I watched, and yes, I know that it wouldn’t have mattered even if he did do it properly).

Now that I know that its 2 separate assholes, I feel like LTT is even more of a tool who leans into the identity confusion on purpose for more internet clout.
