AdGuard pro, SponsorBlock, DeArrow, and Untrap for YouTube. I only rarely ever see a brief part of a sponsor ad, and never see YouTube’s own ads.

Untrap lets you modify nearly anything about YouTube like even removing the view count and channel avatars, among many other options.

I just got the same warning on FF with uBlock. Both Freetube and NewPipe seem to be fine though. I guess Freetube it is until uBlock is patched.

Edit: Also, glad I'm not the only human watching Grossi's videos today lol.

mpv youtube-URL works just fine without even loading the crappy scripts to show a banner like that. Manage your subscriptions with a RSS feeder and you don't need an account to follow creators.
