I use Safari with Adguard and Chrome with Ublock on macOS and Chrome on Android with AdAway root version, and they work pretty fine for blocking ads, but these videos especially in news sites always autoplay and annoy me a bit, I think they have the same effect as the ads in annoyance level for me.

Do you know of some extensions or workarounds to get rid of them for good?

    Tbh if a site is annoying, especially on mobile, I just leave it and never visit it again.

      Yeah that is a valid opinion, but I think many quality websites does this practice, I just don’t like this one, maybe some people do?

      Anyway using the RSS version is like a workaround for me I guess, but sometimes I need to head to the site.
