@vishal-vp Use a browser that has an adblock? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Or go 1337 haxorman and get free YouTube premium lol -
@vishal-vp If you are using android, check F-droid for an application called "NewPipe".
It is basically youtube without adware. -
al3xst776yI use AdAway, but it requires root since it works with the hosts file :|
But it's super effective -
@Stuxnet
My android forces my phone to watch the video on my yt app. Even when i tried to use the web browser to get the link it redirected me to the app.. -
dufferz6766y@iKameo this is the best option tbh. Not only will it do mobile but it does literally everything if you install it properly (ie. Transparently). I've rooted my phone in order to have youtube vanced for background playing and when screen is locked... It blocks ads too but pihole is easier and doesn't need root

@sylargray it does not need to, it has one of the largest user bases and more engagement than Facebook. Its net worth is worth a lot and it's financially backed by Facebook. WhatsApp plays another game entirely, like YouTube, but certainly cheaper to maintain.
