At this point if you aren't willing to pay for YouTube just make plans to let it go because it won't be usable by the end of the year.
-
I'll abandon YT before paying for it.
Besides, paying subscribers will end up with ads in the long run, anyway, just like streaming services.
-
That's literally what I already said. Gonna have to abandon or pay they aren't giving out half mediums anymore

Newpipe, vancetube. It is YouTube without ads
-
On mobile.
On Desktop you can use FireFox + uBlock Origin.
-
On smart tv
Smart tube (android/google tv), tizentube (Samsung) and youtube-webos (LG)
-
Or adblock DNS 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15
-
DNS blocking doesn't really work for YouTube ads.

-
Just don’t use YouTube
Moving to a different service is easier and better in the long term
-
All of this is temporary they will start showing ads in stream with video or edit them directly into the video after upload. It's a simple thing for them to do since everything is per recorded unlike places like twitch where it's live.
-
Peertube would be the next jump
-
The big channels with sponsors definitely could jump over there.

I stopped regular viewership of YouTube years ago. I no longer seek out new creators just check back in on the ones I used to watch from time to time until they stop uploading or I forget about them.✌️

Yt-dlp your favorites

adblockers are free and effective
-
The ads are going to be baked into the video there's nothing to skip
