      I only see ads when I go to a friends house and they have that on the tv app blasting 1min ads every 5minutes.

          They don’t care. I’ve tried with Vanced, blockers, DNS, everything. They’d rather just watch the ads. Blows my balls off.

            Drives my crazy, and apparently throwing whatever i have in my hand; at a friend/relatives tv is not acceptable. Honestly and ad appears and it my instant reaction is to shut it the F up, and then usually to glare at whoever owns it like they are an idiot. I love hearing them explain why they pay tolerate it.

            Friends with benefits, just not necessarily the good kind.

            Should be this one SmartTube. Its a different client, so it doesn’t look like the regular YouTube app, bug you can login and have your feed. It includes adblock and sponsorblock.

        I would recommend firefox + ublock origin also for phone. Install firefox, and though the menu add the extensions “video background play fix” and “ublock origin”.
