Youtube has ads?
-
When the ad is playing, are you able to press up a couple of times and click on the little (i)? It might then go to a "why am I seeing this ad" page which you can then click ok on then click on don't watch this ad again and it will skip the ad. Doesn't work if you're casting a video from a phone, and it doesn't work on some channels.

Content creators should just open a blog with magnet links

Just like lemmy, yet here we are. Sometimes we need to waste some time.

But youtube is actually set up to act as an algorythmic addiction.

I watch youtube on a smart TV where I don't have a way to skip ads. I know there are ways to do it, I just never implemented.
The experience with Youtube is getting so much worse. It used to be one ad at the start of the video. Then it was two. And now ads in the middle of the video. They are also so long! It completely breaks the narrative of the video and is so distracting.
All of this just makes me want to watch less Youtube, which is likely not a bad thing.

But yes that's a problem. It's like if anything artistic without immediate profit needs some sort of public funding to exist otherwise they end up being propaganda.

Ublock Origin on Firefox With Sponsorblock is the answer.

You could see if an adblock dns works, you dont even have to set up pihole for that (its just local hosted adblock/whattheheckyouwant dns).
If it makes problems you can set it to default or cloudflare or somethingSetting another dns is in most cases just going to the settings and pasting a link
Edit: if you set the dns in your router it works at all devices at home
