Edit: Guys. I think a lot of you missed where I said EASIEST METHODS.

Easiest methods to ditch Youtube ads:

  • PC: Firefox + uBlock Origin
  • Mac, option 1: Safari + AdGuard
  • Mac, option 2: Firefox + uBlock Origin
  • Android, option 1: Youtube ReVanced (FYI: ALL Play Store listings for this are fake; the official site is revanced.app and is the only place to get it)
  • Android, option 2: Firefox Mobile + uBlock Origin
  • iPhone/iPad: Safari + AdGuard

For those who may have heard about Pi-hole and are wondering why it's not on this list: PI-HOLE DOES NOT BLOCK YOUTUBE ADS. IT NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL.

No Grayjay? Been using that almost exclusively since they released the desktop version. Had to log out and back in with my (new, basically blank) YT account a few times after updates, and there are very rare cases of certain videos not wanting to load, but overall it's been working well so far.
