Can't possibly make it worse than shoving ads from hate groups. On my computer, I use Firefox with adblock, but on my phone and tablet I had been using the YouTube app until a few days ago. Google decided to show me a PragerU ad on mobile, so I decided to switch to Firefox mobile to watch YouTube. And the app either moved or removed the 'don't show this ad' selection.

If you're using android you might want to check out YouTube ReVanced.

Check out Sponsor Block extension, if you aren't using it. It's really cool

Yeah recently starting using this and it's excellent, no more manually trying to skip over yet another nordvpn sponsor monologue

Fennec is Firefox for Android and it even supports uBlock, Dark Reader and others.
