Can someone create (or does it already exist?) an app that plays the videos in the background, remove the ads and then let you playback the whole video ad-free? Sort of like you did back in the VHS-days…
On Android, there’s Newpipe which doesn’t run ads, and Newpipe x Sponsorblock which clips ads out from the video. On desktop there is FreeTube which also has SponsorBlock you can turn on.

https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp allows you to download them and watch them on your leisure
You can get this same functionality with Youtube Revanced! Free on android! No Ads! Sponsorblock built in! Background playback! And more!
Last I checked, you can just download a youtube video. There are plenty of websites and some apps for that. No need to play it in the bacground.
