    That’s fine. Youtube is either free without ads, or non-existant. Hey, did you guys know adblock is a necessity in life? It’s true.

      Hey did you know with certain add-ons, you don’t need YouTube premium? Just like back in the day when YouTube was just YouTube…

        That’s fine and easy on desktop/web browser, but for mobile devices it is not quite as easy. You would either need to use a hacked version of the app or a third party app.

          Firefox browser w/ublock = YouTube with no ads.

          I actually just have YouTube app disabled.

          On mobile, I don’t use the app. I use safari + youtube.com with vinegar app and adguard.

          No ads plus I get PIP. Quality is a hit or miss but idc about that.

    For fucks sake google, give us an option JUST for YOUTUBE AD FREE…I would pay!

    Not for YouTube music though. I don’t want that bundled shit

      The idea is that the music is on YouTube anyway. Either access the music on YouTube or use the Music app to access. What you would need to ask for is a YouTube subscription without any music access.

    With the change in political atmosphere I suspect they’re going to get a lot more leeway to do things we don’t care for. I wonder if they could lobby to make ad blocking illegal.
