    I finally had to update (19.16.39 --> 20.12.46) and repatch my YouTube on Android via ReVanced. I’ll probably need to do that again in 6 months. I use uBlock Origin and LibreWolf on PC and SmartTube on my TV. I hope Google understands I won’t be watching YouTube with ads.

      Add in sponsorblock as well. Its an extension that autoskips “inline” ads that creators do in video. It uses community input to know when to skip, and is excellent. You can also submit ad time stamps very easily to help out millions of people.

        Good advice! I use SponsorBlock too. Revanced and SmartTube have it integrated by default. LibreWolf/Firefox just need the extension installed. Its saved me hours (probably days at this point) of sitting through bullshit. Cheers!
