At the hospital
Using the tv in the room without yet signing in to my account cause …. I don’t know just not comfortable signing in using the tv browser Anyway. Haven’t seen ads in years on YouTube But now I’m being hit with a bunch and this last one I didn’t skip cause I’m lazy and was just going to wait for it to auto roll. Shit 25 min later I realized the fucking ad was still playing. When I moved the mouse provided with the tv … I saw it was 58 freaking min Wtf Is this what the poors go thru ? |

Pretty much. They really want everyone to cough up the subscription money.

Haha! Most every youtube vid I watch triggers "You... You using a Ad-Blocker! You can't do 'dat! You want us to dis-able your adblocker?"
Just "X" of out the warning, restart the vid and it runs just fine. |

I usually only watch YouTube on tv before bed. An episode or two of forgotten weapons or something puts me right to sleep
 . Anyways if I get an ad longer than 15 seconds I'll back right out of it and select the video again. Do that once or twice and it tends to skip right to the video. |

Yes. Seen a few of those. Including one that was nearly two hours. They are trying to sneak in MOVIE LENGTH ads in now. Fuck YouTube. I get the ad rev needed to make money but damn. Some shorter videos have two adds between them. It’s getting worse and worse. So… I’m using YouTube less and less.

I can’t imagine youtube without those stupid ads. Probably because I waste money here by being a team member. |

Red bull used to run awesome 50 minute adds covering motorcycle races. I hated that I couldn't pause them on the PS4. Would have to go find the video that was being ran as an ad.

It also went from one ad to two ads you have to skip back to back. Google's trying to mask their greed by claiming they're losing money on YouTube.

They've really gotten bad lately, we were watching a video a few days ago that had 4 different 30-60 sec ads within 10 mins of starting the vid. I finally gave up and turned the video completely off.

rumbler is an alternative
YT, get others to create content for you, get reward from their work and then impose ads on everyone or charge to avoid ads. Their business scheme really sucks. They create zero. |

I use revanced on my android devices and adblicks on my browsers. I forget what ads are until I try to watch on native app on TV then I realize and just cast off one of my Android devices to my TV.

That was just the start. Then they started putting a mid-video ad. Then they went to a in-video ad every five minutes or so. Then they added a POST-video ad for those who just let the videos run in a loop. |

Tried again this morning, watching a Camarata video on the TV...five 60 second ads in less than 25 mins. It's odd, though, ads are way worse on the TVs. I get little to no ad traffic on my Fire tablet.

If you don't click Skip, they just keep making money off of you
