YouTube just needs to stop asking me if I'm still listening 2 minutes into every song...
As other has said... Brave browser.
Its 2023 and if you dont use Brave its on you.
They are going to completely block Brave. There's no escape.
I just got bullied into 13.99 a month. Oh well. At least I won't have ads on my phone at work anymore. Still not happy about it.
I know a guy who uses Brave and it works for YT ads. I for one just pay premium.Hey guys hey, it's your old friend, Clippy
my wife has anxiety and needs to watch uninterrupted carpet cleaning videos to be able to sleep
But suddenly
Like come on - I'm not watching your ads even if you make me - the loss for YT is minuscule
look at this shit:
They want me to see half million ads?
Please guys I come to the greatest think tank on this internet for solution
U got this
On my phone I use YouTube Vanced. Basically it's like premium but it's free. No adds, background playback, etc. They have one for music too so I don't need Spotify anymore. It's easy to find out there just search.
The Youtube ad situation has changed over the years, used to just be 1 skippable ad back in the day, then like 2-3 in recent years with 1 likely not skippable.. these days it can be never ending if you don't skip, like 4 adverts back-to-back or a low budget hour and a half long advert about what Doctors aren't telling you about aliens in the pyramids, adverts with silent static screens for minutes at the end, ads with way louder volume than the video you are watching.. Absolutely love it all me, can't wait to see what the future holds for Youtube ads.
I just got the premium free trial to use on my kitchen tv. I used to have my laptop hooked up to it, or would just use the laptop to watch Youtube in there, as I use it so much. One of my computers died, so I had to bring my laptop in that room. I can always bring it back and forth for the time being, but that's too much work.
I tried the tv YT app, and the ads are preposterous. I never see ads on any of my computers, but they can slip in on my phone at the beginning, never during a video watch though. What they have natively is insane, worse than anything tv ever had. @Tito Tapped thx for the suggestion, I'm going to try YT vanced for my phone. Is it a pain to set up?
I'm really liking the app on my tv though. If youtube weren't such cunts to creators, I'd give them some money and pay for the sub. The scumbags they promote, and the way they demonetize hypocritically constantly, I just can't support them, outside the views I give.
I havent got any ads on Youtube unless I'm on my phone.
Log out of your account and tell me if it works for you.The cunts on youtube have set up this ad block blocker, or detector, or whatever you want to call it, so now I've watched my 3 videos for the day and can watch no more. Mfers.
There's no Skip Ads option in Firefox.This is an awful lot of energy to go through because you can't wait 5 seconds and then click on Skip Ad.
Use Google Chrome like a normal person.There's no Skip Ads option in Firefox.
