Yep. Did the same with most of it but Cortana broke something I used. There's a tool that makes a lot of this stuff easier.

That's the thing for me. I'm fine with ads on a free service. Where I draw the line is my kid watching a spooky Jillian and Addy video with a 30 minute unskippable ad that's just a religious talk show or right wing rapper music video. If they policed it better and kept the ads to around 60 seconds or less I'd be fine. Until then, no ads for me.

You literally just install it and it works. The only learning curve is proportional to how much you want to personalize your ad blocking experience.

I'd rather have more expensive food and people get paid fairly.

Come to Missouri. It's cheaper and we have legal weed. Plus, the more sane people the better.

I moved from Tennessee to Missouri. I like the weather in Missouri and legal weed. Other than that, they're about the same. Missouri is way flatter. I'd like to go somewhere else but I'm poor. Thankfully I live in a relatively tame political area.

YouTube ReVanced still works. They patch the app to not play the ads.

The way it works is you install the normal YouTube app, install the ReVanced patcher and it patches and reinstalls the app.

Ehh. I wouldn't suggest someone go use any old patched client. Do your due diligence and be safe.

Hard to believe people down voted this. I'm just saying make sure you get stuff from official sources like https://ReVanced.app

It's like you buying a Ferrari then a few years down the line complaining that yours isn't as fast as the newer one, suing and winning. Yeah Apple was in the wrong but the punishment here fits.

You can install tamper monkey and use a userscript to redirect. That's what I do.

You can use tamper monkey now.
