    They work great on desktop browsers, maybe yours isn’t configured right?

    And on Android there are alternatives…

    I watch a lot of YouTube though (mostly science channels) so I will probably be forced to start paying. I don’t like it.

      Use VPN, switch country to turkey, pay 20 bucks for a year of youtube premium. It sucks, but 20 bucks is more affordable than the 10 per month they are asking.

        I’m lazy, I use NewPipe and Firefox for Android (with uBlock), and I just don’t see ads. Arrg!

        I do try to buy stuff from creators I care about though so they keep going, but I will not use YouTube directly as long as they track everything I do.

      I don’t think I have ever seen any ads on YouTube on any of my devices. Only seen ads and was utterly chocked by it on other people devices. Adblock on youtube certainly works.
