pi-hole means no ads anywhere!

eleqtric-conjurer,

If your pihole can block YouTube ads please tell me how!

Barky,

This doesn’t prevent YouTube ads. Source: have a pi-hole

Actually not true, the way YouTube ads show up is more or less almost impossible for pi-holes to catch. There’s been some successes in the past, but then YouTube ads somehow find another way to circumvent it.

Chewy7324,

Unless the ad is served on the same domain as the video. There’s no way to block the ad through DNS without blocking the video too.

Isn't it just rolling out for Chrome users? Won't Firefox be unaffected?

Ah I see. It begins I guess :(

WtfEvenIsExistence,

I recommend downloading every youtube video you enjoyed watching and start reuploading them to peertube (although, I fear that youtube might just file copyright claims against the peertube instance).

QuazarOmega,

I believe most videos aren’t licensed for unrestricted redistribution, you’re putting yourself and/or your instance owner at risk by uploading content you don’t own.
However I support the general idea, I just don’t know what the best way to share the content safely would be

Yes. It's hyper super bestest ever effective. There are unfortunately absolutely no way around their rock solid implementation.

Can't you just open a new private tab or window for every video that you watch?

Kbin_space_program, (edited )

Absolutely you can. There are absolutely no other, easier ways to circumvent it and this is absolutely not a failed attempt at sarcasm at how laughable their malware attempt is.

Even the "endgame" one is laughably easy to circumvent. I'm not giving them any hints though because Fuck Google.

I don’t get ads. I don’t know why. I have YouTubeTV and get the splash when opening the app to buy Premium, but nonetheless don’t get any ads ever. I’m not looking a gift horse in the mouth and not questioning it.

LoafyLemon,

Some countries don't allow interruptive ads. Cherish it while you still can!

I use a Chrome extension that's been discontinued so probably not.

I can't remember the last time I've seen an ad on YouTube
