    Hi again

    4-Smtube is identified as such in the antiX menu… (Please note If you try out FT10, in the “tiled” menu, it has a Title called simply “Youtube” with youtube’s icon).
    I just tested out smtube and it’s working perfectly. If you installed antiX 19.X probably the system is not using “yt-dlp”.
    Try installing that package, and then try out smtube.
    There are some applications that stream youtube videos, both GUI and in terminal, smtube is just the one that comes, by default, with antiX. It uses a simple web browser to display a webpage that allows access to youtube videos and then opens the selected video using a media player (mpv, by default, if I’m not mistaken) using yt-dlp to download the video and send it to the video player- no adds are displayed.
    Just in case you you don’t know how to install a package, try: menu > Terminal
    sudo apt install yt-dlp
    Press enter and enter your password if asked to.

    antiX comes with an inbuilt ad blocker (to access it, go to menu > Control Center > “Network” tab > Adblock and change it’s settings, and see if your problem with adds is solved.

    P.
