I don't see the ads, because I use an adblocker. Every once in a while I happen to visit YouTube without the adblocker enabled, and... how can anyone put up with that experience?!?! I quickly re-enable the adblocking and return to my blissful ignorance.
It's much the same experience on the rest of the web, actually. I simply can't figure out how normal people manage to cope with the deluge of advertising that's plastered everywhere. And even with an adblocker, the various sponsored content and thinly-veiled promotional blogposts is still constantly spewing forth...
- mrep 8y agoWhat websites do you visit which are that bad? I was an early adopter of adblock but about a year ago I turned it off to see what it was like and it has been totally fine so I haven't turned it back on.

- KozmoNau7 8y agoI never turn off my adblocker, it just isn't worth the annoyance. Instead, I support various people through Patreon, if I enjoy the content they make. That way, they get a much bigger cut, and aren't being screwed over by YouTube's over-eager demonetization policies.
