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?
I love having firefox on my phone with ublock origin and DarkReader.
Facebook Container is also a nice addon that suppresses facebook trackers specifically, that are often embedded on all sites where there is some “log in/share/comment with facebook” element
