YouTube is now in the last stage, cashing out their popularity. Now it's 20 seconds unskippable ad, then ad skippable after 5 seconds, then video interrupted with an another ad. I basically download the video and watch it on my computer or shutdown the browser tab with youtube.

If using android, use Firefox browser with both an adblocker like uBlock and an addon to allow video playback in background along with another addon for auto skipping the “continue playing” Popup. Both have made my life so much easier!
