      How well does it work? On my iPad, Safari Adguard can only black out ad content. (Screen is black during ad, and it displays how many seconds of ad is left)

        Maybe try out Orion Browser. It has built-in ad-blocking and reliably gets rid of YouTube ads.

          Too add to this, it also supports Firefox extensions, so you can use ublock origin as well as sponsor block for a better experience.

            Orion is a pretty nice browser! Quite customisable too. It’s made by the people behind Kagi, the private (paid) search engine.

      Or suck it up and pay for the service if you can afford it.

          Nebula is a streaming service created by creators as an alternative to YouTube and is absolutely worth supporting. We’re not just talking about products here, we’re talking about the creators that make those products viable.

            Ya know, I thought we were talking YouTube specifically, but looking back at the OP it just says video, and I guess my brain just injected the word YouTube on it.

            So, fair enough, if you’ve got a media service that isn’t run by a bunch of human shitstains, then yea support their work.

            If it’s YouTube, don’t give em a cent.

              I paid for YouTube premium family for two years at a discounted rate of $3.60/month, well worth at that price, allowed blocking ads on Nintendo switch. was using the pay from another country with VPN loophole, but they just closed it by requiring payment card from that country. oh well, back to Firefox and ublock origin, the prices are too high to pay normally, I couldnt care less about YouTube music, just make videos affordable.
