@lemmy.worldIf you want to remove parameters from urls you can use the removeparam
filter in uBlock Origin. Documentation: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax#removeparam
For example: /?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com
For the best performance it's recommended to make sure the parameter is included in the filter as seen above with /?igshid
, and with the domain it originated from.
Filters for the examples in OPs post:
/?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com
?is_from_webapp$removeparam=is_from_webapp,domain=tiktok.com
&t=$removeparam=/^amp;/,domain=x.com
There's also a filter that removes a lot of known params: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt
Does WebOS have a browser? Then you can use invidious or piped.
Another alternative could be to route the TV through a VPN set to a country that may not have ads, like for example: Albania, Moldavia or Myanmar.
uBO Lite have a lot of limitations:
The different heights could be related to your custom font or theme. Does it happen on defaults?

Also for anyone wondering how to set the default quality for videos.
Edit your mpv.conf
and add ytdl-format=bestvideo[height<=720]+bestaudio/best[height<=720]
to play all videos in 720p for example.

I use the binary provided by Mozilla at https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
I even wrote an installation script that takes care of it all. (For amd64, not arm64. I'm not sure if they provide a stand-alone arm build.)
