Ello, a relatively new social network that launched as an invite-only beta in March of 2014 aimed at securing private data and providing an ad-free browsing experience has integrated audio & video post formats into the social network platform. This means you can now upload and/or share links directly to YouTube, Vimeo, DailyMotion, SoundCloud and Mixcloud media. Ello will, much like every other social network, embed it within your post automatically.

However what about all those ads that are embedded within these videos? Well Ello has a solution – hide those videos! Now this may result in significantly less content visible on your Ello stream however the media you do see will be significantly more targeted and ad-free!
