The ads pay for the content. I turn sound off, work in another window while they're playing. Leave enough visible so I know when to return.

Get Fdroid, then get Newpipe. I have not seen a youtube ad in years.
ArandomDane
YouTube have adds!?!? Some videos have sponsors, sure... but like adds?!?
BellsTheorem
I know I will get hate for this but I just get the premium service. It comes with music streaming as well.
Donfolstar

Stuey1221

Who the fuck still deals with ads in this day and age? Get with the 21st century and go get an ad blocker
Cadpig
Vanced still works for now
Thcksl
Any tips for blocking ads on YouTube on Android TV?
Dogstar23
Anyone still watching ads is a mug
Cats2cats
You did not buy premium ad free.
Audasity
maybe you should learn how to use an adblocker. this isnt 1994 anymore

https://blokada.org/. Bloody brilliant
Gooooodmoooorrrningmuchwow
Use this plus and older version of imgur and I have no ads here

What was the song tho??
MidoryMoon
Nah, it's October. Which means I'm going to see the same political ads I don't care about for the next month.
aPaleHorseNamedDerp
I know it's a shocker to you, but: The rest of the world doesn't. And doesn't care. And now, go vote :D
NonExistingWisper
Just had 3 weeks of Chromebook ads, definitely never buying one
skolyr
I keep getting texts from a representative who's district I don't even live in. She's extremely corrupt too.
Flodos
So long as you vote.
Morganelefay
Am in Netherlands. Still get US political ads. Whaddya want me to do?
Korugar
Still vote? We'll take all the help we can get...
quietwalker
Unskippable what? Literally the reason adblockers exist ...
EmporerDragon
But then you get to the video to find that it's sponsored by a collaboration of Raid Shadow Legends, NordVPN, Skillshare, Raycon, & Audible.

I still believe Hello Fresh would have done better if their name was 'Hella Fresh' I'd actually consider buying their stuff

ImHereToGetDownvotes
Can someone explain how 30 seconds TOPS of non-skippable ads is apparently unreasonable for a FREE service? Anything ads over 15 seconds 1/
ImHereToGetDownvotes
can be skipped, it's literally in their ad creation page. 2/2
NoSirIDoNotHaveBoloneyInMyPants
Well, if you are watching a live music concert video and you get an add half way through the song it tends to irritate people.
DurendaI
I have PiHole.
LordLobster
I also have a pihole. It's my mouth. They are so tasty. Sweet sweet pie. Just slap me in the face with it.
Harryteeters
Have you tried shutting your PiHole?
IMakeLotsOfReferencesAndRemakes
More than a digital condom. Like giving the whole shaft a UV cleaning on every stroke. But requires a decent amount of setup.
VolatileBullfrog
I tried setting one up for a while, but I must not have done it right (not Raspbian proficient), and the Pi eventually bricked itself anyway
wazscience
Pihole doenst work for YouTube, unless they created a new update for it.

carthorn
You can buy youtube pro for $12 and it comes with youtube music. Simply VPN from Turkey, and 169 turkey currency = ~$12
carthorn
For the year that is
redditmcredditface
ublock origin works for youtube,but doesnt block when the content creator wants to push some VPN that is certainly recording your activity
Feksaaargh
sponsorblock. Crowdsourced not automatic, but has been really good in my experience
HedonistBeard
PiHole is hit or miss for youtube. The official apps especially bypass it regularly by different means.
YesMyNameIsCalvin
Youtube vanced
HedonistBeard
Not available anymore, and app based solutions doesn't work on things like chromecast or consoles.
AttilaTheHungover
Me too, and recently I started seeing ads *try* to run, I get a black screen and a countdown timer until I can skip. Still better than ads.
DurendaI
Makes me giggle when I see shit like that too dude.
PanNonOpticon
Make a youtube account ans claim to be 11.
VolatileBullfrog
Double down with uBlock Origin and AdBlockPlus. I never see an ad unless I watch YT on my phone now.
Gooooodmoooorrrningmuchwow
Try youtube revanced, it's just like youtube premium but no ads and you have a sponsor block to skip intros/outros and self promotion 1/
Gooooodmoooorrrningmuchwow
Bullshit 2/

Youtube Vanced for mobile. No ads and you can turn the screen off and listen
0110110100110100011001110110100101100011
Vanced is discontinued + not on official site anymore (Google sent a Cease and Desist IIRC). It still works, but need 2 get from github
0110110100110100011001110110100101100011
or use ReVanced
Tajik
Yeah im still using it, so idk. Just got a new phone a month ago and downloaded it on here.
0110110100110100011001110110100101100011
same. dev has released a beta of android 13 for my phone. I'm waiting on bug fixes before I update and decide old vanced or revanced myself.
Tajik
Idk which version i have, but mine skips the in video sponsored content. I like that
IWAHALOTMORE
That’s why I paid for youtube premium. Not so much for myself, but don’t want my kids bombarded with that shit
JapaneseGeneticists
I got premium primarily because of the doctor squatch ads.
DemSumBigAssRidges
So, you're the one, huh?
Zemalucoh
Oh yeah. Plus Youtube Kids is by far the best choice for kids. It has everything. Also, we do have adblock.

Did you buy WinZip too?

kakivara
That's why I installed Adblock For YouTube. For myself.

Zemalucoh
Yeah, that's just for your pc. If you use it on multiple devices, you can either pay or try some pihole.
76000BatteryLlamas
Vanced, still works just a little harder to install now
toast667
Some are starting to leak through.
DeadeicPrints
So many complaints about ads but people also hate youtube premium lol. Meanwhile I have never once looked back after starting it.
ImHereToGetDownvotes
It's literally just crying "I want everything for free and even literally 30 seconds TOPS of inconvenience is too much for me to handle!"
painstream
I won't begrudge someone paying for a service one enjoys. Carry on!
DurendaI
Just use a PiHole lol. Imagine paying.
DeadeicPrints
I watch YouTube on my phone, at work, listen in the car, and would like the creators I enjoy to get even a little something for my views-
DeadeicPrints
-even if it's not much. Imagine being that upset at $12 bucks a month and feeling superior not paying a pittance for the content you enjoy.
DurendaI
Or just throw them money via other outlets like patron IF POSSIBLE so Google gets nothing.
DeadeicPrints
I watch too many content creators for that to be possible, plus yt music is the best music streaming imo. It solves EVERY issue at once.
Botticelliii
I just got it and I'm actually pretty happy. I use the music on my phone and watch it on my TV at home a lot so it's worth it for me.
DeadeicPrints
Exactly what I do too. I have been paying for Netflix for years and rarely watch it. But I watch hundreds of hours of YouTube a week.
Botticelliii
Haha same. There's like 4 shows I watch on Netflix. Although I used to use the ads as imgur breaks now I have to pause. First world problems
DeadeicPrints
It's like we're the same person lmao
Botticelliii
Don't you know we're all part of the same simulation? Plato's shadowy galactic joke?
