I have never seen an ad in the past 6 years. I use android phone, windows PC and Android TV. Keen to hear when was the last time you saw an AD ? (aussie.zone)

I see ads on my phone every day because I don't know how to block ads on the YouTube app and I still want their algorithm recommendations so I don't use the other apps that pull from YouTube.

On android Revanced is best option, or stream via website on a browser with adblock.

If you don't care about the algorithm the NewPipe or LibreTube are great.

I'm using Brave if I want to watch ad-free youtube videos on my phone. You can also install an ad-blocker on mobile Safari to achieve the same result.
