Or when the skip button appears but only skips to the next ad
People who complain about ads on the internet are such a weird concept.
Why experience ads if you don’t want to?
Haha jokes on you. I’ve been refreshing the website until the ad refuses to load. It just took 5 minutes
Whyyyyy do people do this?? It simply makes no sense.
i find using freetube keeps Ernie calm.
I wish using freetube kept Ernie calm, but it just doesn’t work half the time. Invidious has the same issue. Which is significantly more annoying than just using YT, which Ernie has uBlock Origin for.
I do update freetube about 1 time a week these days (which is approaching the annoyance level of ads).
I used to have a lot more issues with it when I didn’t update so frequently - or maybe that was just a different stage in the arms race; I’m sure the reliability will vary, and eventually the developer of freetube will give up.
I mean, I wont be throwing out the bat or anything crazy like that.
This has never happened to me because I’ve been blocking ads for the last 15 years.
You get ads?
Shut your Pi-hole! My daddy had ads on the TV, and his dad had ads on the radio, and his dad had ads in the paper! I proudly allow ads and tracking!
I wish there was a way on Pi-hole to block those ads on TV yt
If you’re getting ads on videos, you need to get you shit together and install uBlock Origin asap.
How well does it work? On my iPad, Safari Adguard can only black out ad content. (Screen is black during ad, and it displays how many seconds of ad is left)
Maybe try out Orion Browser. It has built-in ad-blocking and reliably gets rid of YouTube ads.
Too add to this, it also supports Firefox extensions, so you can use ublock origin as well as sponsor block for a better experience.

uBlock or ReVanced
Tubular also works pretty well
UBlock as others have said. Or on android newpipe works well.
As another one has said, try tubular! It’s newpipe but with sponsor block integrated.
uBlock Origin, not uBlock. They’re different - uBlock Origin forked from the original uBlock.
So far, every comment bar one has mentioned ad blockers.
You lot are as original and creative as the numpties making comments about the size of the pilot’s balls on aviation videos.
This is a post about unnecessary rage that absolutely noone has to deal with because everyone should use ad blockers. OP may or may not know, but the post suggests the later. I dont see how it is ‘unoriginal’ to comment about ad blockersin that case…

The fact that almost everyone is saying the same thing is pretty much the definition of unoriginal.
It just shows what the focus lies on. A post full of comments recommending adblockers has far more impact than a single comment making the post seem dead.
Youre technically right that it is unoriginal, but I dont see how originality would matter at all in this case.
The one that worked in a pun was alright. This is the fediverse crowd though, this is very on-brand.
Oh, this is exactly what I expected. Perhaps not 100% ad blockers, but I was expecting most of them to be like that.
