YouTube is a dystopian nightmare without adblock. Especially mobile versions. I had a 3/4 page dominos advert and the top quarter of my screen was the video. 2 unskippable adverts before my 3 minute video started. Then another advert inserted randomly into the middle of the video.

I genuinely don't know how anybody uses YouTube without adblock. Even paying for YouTube premium is a lesser experience than an adblock provides.
