I cannot understand how some people are living with this. It is unbearable

In Firefox, on Linux, behind a VPN and firewall with ad blocker, I run 5 different privacy/ad blocking extensions. I keep hearing about adds, but not seeing them.

Supposedly Youtube now is getting more agressive on this? I wouldn't know. Haven't seen a Youtube notice about it yet.

But really, I dream of the day youtube is replaced by something else. Fracture Youtube into 1,000 pieces and scatter it into the wind.

It's bound to happen. Louis Rossmans new app Grayjay is an interesting attempt at allowing users to step away from the YouTube walled garden
