    Adblockers have been mentioned a hundred times, as they should.

    Annual reminder to donate to Invidious too. YouTube has done some serious work to try and block most of the instances.

    For me it isn’t the length, but the frequency that is bothering me. It’s insain, it’s like every 3-5 mins depending on the video length. It’s unusable atleast in my case. Only watching from devices I have adblocker on now. Not my phone.

    When you see the long ad, just close the fuckin’ browser window. Immediately. And then use something else.

    They’ll only get the point and change if you stop giving them your eyeballs for shit you don’t wanna see.

    Where?

    Oh! On the web interface? n_n I don’t use the web interface. It’s video, so I use a video player. I see no ads, ~ if I do [like ads read out by the podcast host], I skip ahead.

    on YouTube’s TV app

    That’s where you went wrong. Come to the free software community. We can mend bugs (like malicious features (like ads)) with free software, being free to use, study, share & change the software.
