ReVanced. I love my ad-free, sponsor-blocking, Shorts-removing YouTube experience.

As a bonus, I also enjoy using Mp3tag. It's a program I can use to easily change and update the tags on all my music files, and it can even do it all in batches. It can also connect to various music services (Discogs, Musicbrainz, etc.) to get music tag info directly so you don't have to type it all in manually.

I really like wazuh. Its such a well put together product and feels like enterprise software. One of the best cyber security tools there is.
