Yeah I stopped paying for premium once I’d figured out using Safari on my phone with an ad blocker works with YouTube still lol

I use Firefox with ublock on my phone and I get no ads. Or I watch them in Newpipe.

Which adblocker are you using on iOS?

DNS or an app? How does it work?

[–] ComradeMiao 2 points 1 month ago

It works in safari and you can block anything like ublock. Not dns. You could run dns on a server and run your iphone's network through it as well.

If you use iOS devices for watching YouTube, look into side-loading uYou+, it’s basically an edited YouTube app that removes most of the ads. You can stream from your phone to the apple TV, too, also without ads. You don’t need a jailbroken phone or anything like that.
