I haven’t seen an ad on YouTube in ages with ublock origin.
- shishy 4y agoYeah. I got a Smart TV recently and with the YouTube app started seeing ads again. I think I have to just stream from my laptop instead of using the apps :(. Probably better that way though, typing with the remote is terrible!
- isthisthingon99 4y agohave you considered to just pay for youtube? you can add up to 6 people in your family who can also use it and your money goes to the content creators you watch, minus youtube's cut probably. that's what I do.

- Corrado 4y agoInteresting... I did not know that you could share your YouTube paid status with other family members. I despise the Ads that YouTube shows me and would do almost anything to remove them from my phone, iPad, and TV. I already use a blocker for Firefox, so at least I have some respite on my computer.
- isthisthingon99 4y agoYou have to create a google family to do it, but yeah that's the way to go.
- Handytinge 4y agoThe irony of feeding the advertiser rich information for the purpose of reducing ads.
- rasz 4y agoManifest V3 will take care of that, only 8 months to go.
- jonas-w 4y agoIf you still use plain chrome/chromium then yes. But most people who use ublock origin use firefox as it is the most effective browser for ublock.
- timbit42 4y ago...and SponsorBlock.
- MaxikCZ 4y agoI often forget how great uBlock is until I have the displeasure of using a computer with no uBlock installed, but every video I am reminded of usefulness of Sponsor Block
- tmaly 4y agosad that it is not available on iOS

- manuelmoreale 4y agoLatest https://1blocker.com https://1blocker.com does come with the option to block YouTube ads while using the mobile site. Don’t think it works if you use the app though.
- teetertater 4y agoIf you're up for the risk of jailbreaking, there are ways :)
- nitrohorse 4y agoYattee [1] and AdGuard [2] are two solutions I’ve found that can help.

- tifadg1 4y agoHoly cow how have I not heard of testflight installation method with which yattee is being distributed! Reading up more on it, seems you need to be an ios developer to use it. Beh. Thanks for mentioning yatee, as adguard is severely lacking in that ads are rarely blocked.
- eek2121 4y agoYou don't need to be a developer for test flight. I am not an iOS developer, but I have installed test flight for access to a few different apps.
