Every single time I get an ad in YouTube (this is on Apple TV) I just hit menu and open the video again. They never serve me ads on the followup request.
Perhaps as a result, I get very few ads when I use YouTube. Maybe 2-3 ads per week. I go to a friend's house (also Apple TV) and every video they open they have to wait through 2 ads to watch it. Even with the same videos as the ones I watch.
Maybe I've found a loophole in the system?
- kevindong 6y agoIt also depends on the kinds of videos you want. Some creators (namely the very big names) very intentionally opt to include ads (sometimes multiple ads) during the course of their video aka the video specifically asks you to stay tuned after the ad break. It's been a while since I subscribed to YouTube Premium, but as I recall some of those midroll ads were unskippable.
