I have a YouTube premium subscription for one reason: I travel a lot and you can't put an adblocker on an old hotel TV that only has the YouTube app

Once I get to travel less, I'll go back to only using ublock origin and sponsorship block.

I thought ublock or ad blockers in general didnt work on youtube videos. Do you have any info on how to get that to work?

Ublock has worked on youtube videos forever, on mobile i use NewPipe or you can use firefox mobile with the ublock addon
