YouTube didn't have ads before it got bought IIRC, not that it would have lasted that way even if it was not bought
It's been many years, but I remember a small banner ad below the video and maybe one to the side. It was so reasonable though it's hard to remember for sure.
That was after it got bought IIRC, but it's possible I'm misremembering.
At least we know for sure neither of us is confident about our memories.
