Install another browser like Librewolf (ublock included) or Brave. That's it, say good-bye to the ads, and not only in Youtube. In Android use Youtube Revanced. In Android TV (Nvidia shield, google TV, etc) use SmartTube.

And don't use the "ads-company" browser in the future if you don't like ads.

    or Brave

    Uuhhh, yeah, no. Don't do this. Librewolf – or really any Firefox browser, even with how Mozilla is right now – is going to be a lot better choice than the homophobia-and-crypto Chromium browser.

    Unfortunately Firefox is also an ads company now, but still gecko-based browsers are the only good choice rn

    I don't like the direction they're heading, but Firefox still works just fine with UBlock Origin, Sponsorblock, etc.
