    The new ads suck. It’s so frustrating to use. I’m hoping a PiHole will get rid of em but I think I remember reading that Google does some nasty shit to dodge that

      I use SmartTube on my Android TV and it hasn’t run into any issues so far. If you can install 3rd party apps you might want to give it a try

        Yep I have it too. For now it works flawlessly. Hopefully it doesn’t take much from Google’s userbase and they just leave it alone lol.

      Google uses the same domain name, pi-hole can’t block that.

      Pihole only works when ads come from a third party add provider. It cannot tell the difference between YouTube videos and ads.

      You can get rid of any ads right now, you only need the right solution depending on where you see the ads. Smarttubenext for TV, ReVanced for your phone, Firefox + Ublock Origin for your PC. Pihole for the rest and Adguard DNS on my phone just to be sure. I can’t tell you when I saw the last ad in my life.
