Revanced project, smart YouTubeTV and/or Smart YouTubeNext, ublock origin, and xManager for Spotify.
I have an android phone and an android TV so I see no ads. However I have an iPad which I take away and the ads make me sad.
Is there any way to adblock YouTube on an iPad?
You can install Firefox on iOS, and install ublock origin
Edit: apparently not
You cannot
Firefox on iOS is just a reskinned safari, extensions are a no
oh damn, didn't know that. I just knew that Firefox was installable on iOS, and extensions work great on Android, so I'd assume it'd be the same. But you're right, apple locks browsers into using WebKit. That sucks
Piped frontend via the browser
Safari has the hyperweb extension that does a pretty good job for me!
Edit: hyperweb does a bunch of stuff, eliminating youtube ads is only a fraction of this extension
Late, but maybe nextdns. I haven't actually tried with YouTube on an iPhone/ipad, but I know they integrate pretty easily on Apple devices. Fairly customizable too with a free tier, just need to make a profile.
Won't block YouTube ads.
Hadn't heard of x manager, thank you! Super giddy right now, I've been using modded versions of the apk for years but a few months ago my go-to stopped working and haven't found a viable replacement until now. Really godda give them props I'm super surprised at how easy that was lol
Also I'd used revanced but quit when the original got buggy. With how crappy their ads have gotten now I'm going to give the new version a shot thanks for mentioning that as well
