      On Youtube I don't see my comments anymore

      I've had that happen. Just above where you enter your comment is "Sort By" option, select Newest might fit it

            @happyhomesteader The Sort By option should be there on the line directly above where you leave a comment. Click on "Sort By" and you should get 2 options Top Rated or Newest First (select newest). This is for You Tube correct? Not YT homepage as there are no comments there, will find the sort by option on each separate video

            Yeah I HATE!!! ads also, they're everywhere, should rent our foreheads out and make some money ourselves LOL

            Not sure where you found ad blocker option in YouTube itself but if there is might also find blocker in Google tied with YT. I use laptop and Opera blocker is extremely efficient. I have to turn blocker off to be able to do a search in YT and then remember to turn back on

            If you get that mess of supermarket ads in snail mail you can opt-out of them by going to website of that mail distribution agency but might have to hunt for an opt-out option.

            I get an ad piece of crap in yard. They put some pebbles with a business card in sealed baggie so they can just toss them out while they drive by

            Don't hesitate to let me know if you find something that works . . . or not.

              @orbsphere, I tried disabling all the extensions in my Opera and lo & behold everything was there. Then I enabled just the Opera ad blocker and MCTB... It works now! Thank you very much for the assistance...!!! It really is appreciated.

                Hello, everyone!

                My HP laptop has Intel graphics, a gamma of 2.2, and I am unable to change it.

                So I went ahead and got the Opera browser's "Make Chrome Text Black" plugin.
                It performs admirably! So many changes, no more difficulties with text reading...
                Opera should incorporate this into their browser!
                Every few minutes, my eyes thank me!

                I appreciate your knowledge.
                Enjoy your day.

                  Hello @rubismith
                  Glad you posted as I had a another comment to add to thread and now don't have to hunt for thread.

                  I suggested using Windows Ease of Access High Contrast Black as a method to help view web pages easier.

                  I see Opera now has a toggle to "force website pages to use Dark Theme". This is much simpler than using High Contras as I had suggested but there are no adjustments for custom colors.

                  This is screen grab of what this post looks like

                  . . . for some reason can't upload pic, sorry about that

                    @happyhomesteader another possibility related to having difficulty with contrast is possible developing/having cataracts. I went recently to eye doc and have them. Surgery scheduled in a few days. Will see how that turns out. Take care

                          I'm just trying to be funny; I'm sorry if that offends; but I don't know my monitor gamma from my mama's grandma, so it's probably best if I stay out of it.

                          Additionally, my vision recently changed, so I grabbed an old pair of tinted glasses, which are why the screen is already too dark. Smoky grey glasses' pinkish tint is even worse. Since everything has a pink tint, grey text is difficult to read. LOL

                            Having cataracts is a different possibility associated with having trouble with contrast. Recently, I visited an eye doctor and was given them. In a few days, surgery is scheduled. Will wait and see how that goes. Be cautious

                                  @happyhomesteader Thanks for the good wishes. Got 1st eye done just yesterday, didn't realize how bad eyes had gotten. Like brand new. have other eye scheduled early Mar 2023. @happyhomesteader (/post/291284) said: > "I hope that works out okay for you!" If I read between the lines does that hint at some kind of hesitancy / avoidance on your part? I think it was well worth it. By all means should be considered.
