I'm surprised at how many people are paying for YouTube premium. Just patch the YouTube app with revanced and you get better than YouTube premium for free

I primarily watch YouTube on my smart TV. There are pretty much no other options to avoid ads.

I use SmartTube on my Chromecast to watch YT without ads.

It even has Sponsorblock. built-in. It's the best Youtube experience on TV.

I'm shocked by the amount of people that don't know of adblockers on desktop.

But then I remember, I have no life.
