    I have a youtube premium account. Used to just use u-block but my computer is non-functional and I now primarily consume media on my ipad so I got a subscription. So far I have not had any ads. Working on getting a new pc and coming back to the light

      You can download Firefox and install Ublock on the mobile app, then just go to YouTube.com. That’s how I usually do it on my android phone anyway; I assume it works for iOS too

        Last time I tried, I couldn’t install add-ons on Firefox on the iPad. Because Firefox on iPad is just safari with a coat of paint.

          All browsers on iPad and iPhone are just safari with a coat of paint to be fair.

            I wouldn’t mind so much is uBlock Origin was available for safari, but it’s not, so I will have to go for one of the dodgy knockoffs…

        It does, I use adblocks, Untrap, DeArrow, and SponsorBlock on iOS safari, and I don’t see shit other than the video itself.

        I would absolutely love to do this but I am nearly tech illiterate. I use firefox already and poked around on ublock origin’s site but I dont know how to install extensions or whatever on ipad and I didnt see anything obvious in the settings on firefox. Any recommendations?
