nowhere near comparable experience if you want to seamlessly use your YT account across a TV + phone + computer

i'd rather pay the $10 than pay with my time by being an ad-block whack-a-mole diagnostician

I use skipvids.com across phone and computer and xbox. I'm too cheap to pay $15.99 per month

For those of us who are too cheap to pay the subscription:

On my iPhone I almost never see YTube ads. I don’t use the YTube app and instead I install Chrome and watch YT that way. I lose notifications—which is perfect for me, since I don’t want many notifications on my phone anyway.

This might also work in Safari but I haven’t tested it.

On Android, Firefox with sponsorblock. I do pay for Premium though. In since YouTube Red.

> ad-block whack-a-mole diagnostician that is being done as open source community efforts now: NewPipe for mobile, SmartTube for smart TVs etc. All you have to do is update them once in a while

It's not comparable, it's superior! The youtube app stinks! And I don't care about "seamlessly" using it across my devices.
