Ever since I started paying for Hulu years ago, I have not seen a single ad while watching it.

A few shows still have ads even with the paid option. I know Grey's Anatomy is (or was at one time) one of them, but I believe there are a few others.
Every time I’ve looked it’s fewer shows, though - last I checked it was only 3. They were popular ones but nothing I had any interest in, so I switched from Netflix (I was done waiting for them to let me turn off that horrid auto-preview misfeature) and I have never once seen an ad on Hulu.
FWIW, the Hulu package associated with the Disney+ option is not the "commercial free" package. So you'll have to pay a bit more with the Disney+ to retain your ad-free experience on Hulu.
