I can hardly remember what any of them were for, which rather defeats the purpose of having them.
As @Woodenhead says in the post directly above yours, a switch to uBlock Origin will resolve that for you.
Also, the SkyGo app for Mac hangs during the adverts with AdGuard running lately
EDIT: ^ This is wrong. Senior moment there. I meant Vivaldi, of course, which does You-tube far, far better than any other browser I have tried, including Opera (which is better than average but not an0ywhere near as good in this regard as Vivaldi.)
it's the silence that's golden.... the sound level of the ads and jingle tracks (irritating and level boosted to hell) that do my head in.
I don't watch much and I sure ain't paying YT a penny.
Thank you Opera.
No ads at all with Opera for me.
Oh wait ... Tell a whopping lie, I use Vivaldi for You-tube. Bit of a senior moment there. With Vivaldi, there is no waiting, no blank screen, no nothing. It just plays the content you are interested it without the bullshit.
(In my defence, it is easy to confuse Opera and Vivaldi. Opera was invented by Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner (and others). It pioneered most of the browser features we take for granted today. Ten years ago, von Tetzchner became unhappy with the direction Opera was taking under its new Chinese owners and founded Vivaldi, which is now probably, all things considered, the best browser on the web today. Having said that, I still use Opera a lot too, and it remains excellent. But for You-tube, Vivaldi reigns supreme as the best there is.)
