        I use PipePipe too. Also has SponserBlock inbuilt. Make sure you enable it though.

        Alternatively, Firefox and uBlock Origin works.

      On mobile I can avoid ads by using a VPN to my home network which then has pihole. Usually I just don’t watch any videos on mobile

          Maybe they changed something, it used to work for me before I stopped watching YouTube on mobile completely
