It is a well-known thing that browser adblockers often fail to play nicely with YouTube these days. However, even if you paid for Premium Lite, Google says it will soon push even more ads.

    Christ, premium light is still fucking 8 dollars a month and you don’t even get rid of ads. The greed is fucking astounding.

    I’ll stick to an adblocker, dickheads.

      Firefox+uBlock Origin on the computer.

      ReVanced on my Android phone.

      SmartTubeNext on my Android TV.

      I haven’t seen a YouTube ad in years.

    Why would I pay for premium if it doesn’t remove the ads? It’s like they don’t do market research and just make shit up.

        Can you, though? Because I remember when DVB started in Europe, they’ve sent a signal during commercials that makes your device block the fast forward feature.

        I don’t know whether that’s still a thing. But you needed a hacked firmware on your TV / set top box to allow to FFWD through commercials back then.
