As far as I know, it worked out of the box for me after installing both mpv and yt-dlp on Arch linux.

I suppose the biggest advantage of a online password manager for non-tech savvy users is the syncing between devices.

Actually a few years ago schools started lending laptops (which you have to return at the end of the school year), but as far as I remember we never used them in class.

I can't quite recall if this was before the covid outbreak, but I think we still had in person classes that year.

I believe one of the browsers mentioned (badwolf) just uses webkit, so it probably can browser the modern web just fine.

Dillo and links2 might have a harder time with js and css tho, I'm not even sure if they support js at all.

Curiously, I was just playing with it yesterday.

In the end I decided to just replace it with uBlock origin plus some filters [0], [1], [2].

While this solution doesn't add a convenient button in the UI to show the hidden domains and to quickly block them, for some reason this extension didn't work if I had javascript disabled, while the native uBlock one did.

I believe there's also a userscript that does something similar, but I never tried it.
