With Firefox + uBlock Origin you can still be Rick Rolled!

I was gonna say, you guys get YouTube ads? I’m still blocking them, so I’m still a target for Rick-rolling.

Are you sure your adblocker is working? I was having trouble with mine just yesterday when i found out ublock origin has an additional setting you need to click to keep blocking YouTube ads now

Heh, nice try. Sync for Lemmy saved me with their link preview.

But yes, sometimes you need to go into Ublock Origin’s settings and manually update to stay ahead of YouTube’s updates to their filter blocking.

If it’s an android TV, I can’t recommend SmartTube enough!

The 95% get hit with an even better Rickroll, the Skill Issue.

Good news, everyone! You can self-host the Rickroll via a docker container!

I’m more of a cis-gay-socialist, but I’m friends with a number of trans-programmer-communists!

Pretty sure docking is gay sex slang for putting penises in penises.

I verified it. It is an actual thing and it is actually called docking.

I’ve just checked with my lawyer and there is no way you can get a penis to fit inside another penis, the size variance simply isn’t great enough between different penises

I recently heard of a straight docking story. Strap not trans. Yes I immediately befriended both people. So no it’s not necessarily gay, but it almost always is

I always look up “rickroll no ads” because of this. Also it’s a different YouTube url so those nerds who recognize the rickroll url won’t recognize my link

Here’s where I learned this trick, they have a lot of other cool stuff too: https://youtu.be/uHgt8giw1LY?feature=shared

I just see Rick Astley’s face with a play button. The main issue is that modern browsers disallow playing sound without user interaction.

“XcQ, link stays blue” doesn’t make me a nerd. :'(

I mean, I am, but I don’t think I’m allowed to be on lemmy if I’m not, so I don’t think it’s relevant.

One of my favourite things about the rick roll is how much Rick Astley embraces it, rather than being salty that his song got memed. He seems like a great guy.

He did an AMA on Reddit, and someone successfully rick rolled him. It was glorious, and he took it in stride.

I’d imagine monetization of the video with tens of millions of views doesn’t hurt.

Why wouldn’t he embrace it? It put him back into the spotlight after 20 years!
