For context I’m in the US. The last time I used YouTube without an ad blocker, there were 2 ads back to back, and way too frequently. I tried watching on my PlayStation tonight, and not only are they more frequent, they’ve increased in quantity by 150%. It’s also very common for the last ad to last 2 minutes to over an hour long. What the actual fuck, why would anyone watch YouTube without an ad blocker at this point? It’s literally unwatchable
Edit: the amount of unsolicited advice in the comments is unreal. I don’t get ads on my phone or on desktop, I’m very aware of how to block them. I simply won’t watch YouTube on my PlayStation anymore. I’m not looking for suggestions, please stop with the recommendations.
WebOS huh? Checkout WebOS Homebrew Project, they have a youtube player with adblocker and sponsorblock support.
That’s pretty cool. I’m too scared to mess around with my TV though like that. Like I mentioned it’s not unbearable yet, but when it becomes so I’ll just uninstall I guess, and cast LibreTube or something from my phone to my Chromecast. 👍
