Just remembered using Brave stops the ads. I think I stopped using it for other reasons (Chromium based and I can’t seem to queue or sort out making playlists) but might go back to that because the amount of gambling ads are unbelievable.

I hope smarter people than me screw YouTube over for this

Edit: Also if you have Android I think there’s an alternative called Piped? There’s a few but I think I tried to watch something linked through an alternative on iOS and it wouldn’t let me
