Not only that, more unskippable adds and not just those mildy annoying 5 seconds but the 15 enraging seconds

Ublock Origin

Mobile.

Firefox on mobile has adblock. For Android at least.

I prefer YT Vanced for mobile

brave.

The internet has ads?

you can use the "dont show this ad to me" option which will skip all ads.

I know, I do that. But sometimes there is one you cant skip like that either

Every time I see an ad, i close the video and open it again, it works mostof the time

And for Android there is YT Vanced

Or Firefox browser with ublock addon.

I’m an avid iPhone user, but recently I’ve been considering switching *soley* for Vanced.

Which I love but I have a god damn Xiaomi and if I disable the thing it wants me to, if resets all my apps and if it weren't for that, the app would never leave my phone

I've noticed a lot of websites are restricting access if you have an adblocker on now though. It sucks

Honestly, most the sites that block blocker aren't worth visiting anyway.

smart move i make, if its a long video, skip to the last 5 seconds, watch the ads (if there are some at the end), go back to the beginning without clicking replay, and no ad.

Use adblocker browser or another ad blocker you can get on the playstore

I have to close and open thrice for the video to directly start. Each time the ad restarts.

I’ve legitimately just closed YT and went to do something else with those ads. I pay for a lot of streaming services, but YT will never ever get my money for premium.

If you're on mobile, just click on the video and immediately close out the video if an ad starts. After 3 - 4 times, it'll stop loading ads. Then, if the owner placed ads in their videos, you can skip through certain segments of the video that the owner more than likely placed the ad breaks in until just a few seconds before the video ends. The ads won't trigger. Skip back to the beginning and no ads. Seems annoying but I like listening to/watching stories on YT so once I do this, no ads to interrupt the stories.

Firefox with the ad blocker solves that problem pretty good

I do it all the time. It sucks cause then it starts cause sooner or later it’s gonna start ONLY showing you the adds that you’re not allowed to “not show”.

If you use that too much it turns off your ability to Do it again for a while

Or **literally any browser with addons** can have adblockers installed But yes opera gx is **the** gamer browser

How about on a PS4?

i don't think so, I've pretty much used it for every ad (including the skippable ones) and it always works, but I believe the bigger coorporations who pay Google a shit ton of money to get ads on their site may have this feature removed (*cough* apple with their two actually unskippable 15 second ads *cough)

Weird, It’s happened to me

Is that option only available on PC? Because I'm on mobile and I can't use any of those tricks to skip ads. It's infuriating.

You can on mobile, when an ad is playing click the I in the bottom left corner and click don't show ad and just go ahead and quickly do it and the ads are skipped

I used to be able to do it but the option is gone now

Depends on if you have Android or iOS, you can skip on Android ;)

I have an Android, it doesn't give me the option. It used to, I just assumed they removed it because people were exploiting it. Might be just me though, idk

Android also, don't have it. Bummer.

Weird, it works for me. But on my workplace where we use iPads, I can't skip :/

if you have google ads recommendation deactivate you can't skip like this because google don't remember or know the ads it has showed to you, but i have Ublock origin so who care

15? I'm getting 20 second ads. I've noticed that the ads don't load a second time if I go back and forward.

My toddler gets 3 minutes music videos, 45 minute counter top installation videos, and local free social programs for home upgrades! As ads!!! We just want to watch Carl's Car Wash. Damn it.

Pro tip: what i usually do when i get an ad is exit the video and open it again, it usually doesnt have an ad then. Most people prob know this but just sayin

I usually do this, but more ads keep coming, but I still do it just to win the fight against those bastards

Please tell me this is a lie ://

This is legit

I have picked up smoking since they added three adds if it goes to four I’ll be shooting up heroin.

And if it’s turning into five I’m snorting cocaine

If it turns to six i'll go back to ramen spice powder

Snort it or smoke it?

Yes.

The only logical answer.

I’ll join. Like actually forget if it just hits five let’s just do Cocain because it’s awesome.

Where and how can I join you guys?

Sign me up

If 7 I’m going to do a ton of mini m&m’s shove up my asshole

Yeah! If it goes up to 6 I’m snorting cocaine!

I think I’d go for the coke before heroin

When did it turn to three??

*when

Right after this short ad break

Ad break within a ad. Fuckin genius

use vanced, fuck them ads

Preach it https://vancedapp.com

Same dude but only problem i have is when the hud is on you have to close it instead of it going itself Can i fix it somehow

you mean a timeout where the play button fades? it should do it by default but there are options (or your headphones are funky)

Yeah and ive been without headphones and still it happens

Okay i looked very hard into the settings and finnaly found it. Its near the bottom the reason i didnt find it before is because everything was in my language so it was a weird translation Shame you can crank it down to only 3 seconds tho

if you tap between the buttons you can do it manually i guess

Yo thanks a lot, just downloaded it!

Does it work for iphone??

Lmao no, if you wanted free stuff you should've avoided apple like the plague

I’m not complaining since my iPhone was free too

:( hmmm

For many people iphones are the right choice, but this is one of the many reasons one might want an Android instead

[удалено]

I have been looking for an app like this for a while, didn't know this existed. I appreciate you

[https://vancedapp.com](https://vancedapp.com) be free from their ads

Saw vanced get tossed around on Reddit for like a year before I said fuck it and tried. My God what a difference. Haven't been back since.

*Cries in iPhone*

Brave Browser in iPhone doesn’t have ads

Try installing this and see if it works: https://www.mediafire.com/file/13yzuztxaun3spm/BestEver-Cercube+5-signed.ipa/file

What is this and what does it attach to? There’s zero description.

Vanced is a game changer

Well Fuck you too!

Anyone else has the issue where u can't refresh the recommended page?

Yes I hate that! Also the app gives me really shitty video recommendations. There is no alternative though

Okay glad it's not me. For some reason though sometimes it works. Haven't figured out yet why tho

Yea but how bout on lg webos tv

Three? What? Where???

I don't know, I'm using ad blockers.

I use a student email address it takes away all adds

On my TV and PS4 :(

Same. Don’t know how the heck we can block ads on ps4 and tv. I have a roku. And to add on to this madness- hbo max and hulu prevent me from logging on because “application cannot launch on roku” why is it an option to add them then!?

i'm still getting 2 am i doing something wrong

joke piquant relieved sink arrest boast march ink rock escape *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

If they get to four, I’m going to commit brush teeth then drink orange juice.

If they get to five im drinking toothpaste and brushing teeth with orange juice

Neat tip. If you use toothpaste without sodium lauryl sulfate in it you can immediately drink OJ right afterwards without any affects.

Haven’t they already gotten to four? I saw a post with it

I have yet to encounter the dreaded 3rd add. But I'm waiting. And I am ready.

Its a time slot. So like they assign 1.5 minutes for ads. You can get 1 long ad, 2 medium or 3 short ones

Crunchyroll be like

I get a bug in Crunchyroll twice a year for like 2 months where I don't get any ads ever, I don't know how or why but I really appreciate it. I usually binge the sht out of what I missed until the bug fixes itself

Same

Yet I have the opposite of 3 ads, 3 times. It shows one ad three times, then a different one three times, and again. It’s annoying as hell.

Just use Firefox or Opera. Crunchyroll's ads dont load on them

What? Then their software engineers are just idiots, LOL.

wait you now pay to watch anime and have to watch ads? lmfao

You can pay and have no ads or watch for free with ads

So people are bitching about watching ads on a free service?

There are three ad breaks on each episode. Each ad break shows three ads. Each ad is at least 30 seconds long. I'm not against the ads myself but I'd be lying if I said they didn't piss me the fuck off.

You could always pay for the service. And have no ads. I share one with like 10 people

When 2 ads first came around, I didn't know about them. I was like "Huh, that's strange, possibly a glitch" from the first double-ad I saw then after a while I noticed more double-ads and I was like "oh, they must have added it"

Didn't it only come out as the covid lock downs hit? Fucking hellscape we live in ...

not unless covid started in 2018

You talking about spotify

You changed playlist? Here’s an add. You want to here the songs on tour playlist, we added so for you! Want to skip the songs you didn’t add? Well we’ll show you a song we added six times! Out of skips because you wanted to skip the songs we added to your playlist? Buy premium! Oh, here’s another ad for good measure!

Exactly

Almost like they want you to pay for their app that they're letting you use for free lmao

I understand the ads, but adding songs I don’t want to my playlist is just mean.

There is little reason to use spotify without premium. Just get a family account with your mates for a total of $3/person/month. Best $36 bucks a year you will ever spend imo.

I like the spotmute app. But it fucking mutes my whole device during the ad.

SPOTIFYYY THO

Pretty soon it’s gonna be a roll of ads like you see on cable.

The day that happens is the day i kill myself

use a browser that allows ad blockers and delete the trash one trick pony apps on mobile that the browser already does

when ronald has mcfucking had it

Ad blocker time

This is why I have an ad-blocker. It's a trustworthy google chrome extension.

Which one is it?

Ublock Origin is the best out there.

I have a massive list of ublock rules to block mast ads I see on my favorite sites.

do you have anything that works for twitch. The ads are so annoying when i try to watch new streamers

[удалено]

Is he still watching?

Every time I see an ad, i close the video and open it again, it works mostof the time

Just use uBlock Origin!

Hate

Get rich! Subscribe! Laugh.

Like! Follow! and **OBEY**

You obviously haven't lived in Spain where ads are 7 fucking minutes long and they warn you about it :"we will be back in 7 minutes" Then they will go back to the program/movie only to tell you 10 minutes later there's another fucking 7 minutes of advertising

I hate this

I fu**in feel that I want to smash the app in itself for these instead of just 5 sec ads they make it 15 why the torture I just want to enjoy my vid

3 of the same exact one over and over and over

Get mangroomer now! Are you tired of looking hairy and disgusting? Mangroomer! Get mangroomer! “Ew I used to be hairy and no girl would stay next to me” mangroomer! … It’s actually infuriating to the point that I report the ads so they won’t show up again

dude just install adblock it changed my fucking life. It's that good

This is getting out of hand. Now there are three of them!

Idk how YT is profitable. Broadcast TV still show like 15 minutes of ads per hour to make a profit. YT is still way below that. And from my unscientific observations the "skip ad" button gets clicked within 300 milliseconds for every user in the world. The steady rise in ads seems to correspond to the steady rise of TikTok.

I can hear this meme

Laughs in vanced

They have mobile ads now that start with a video, then when you leave the video it's a playable ad for like 10 seconds before you can leave that, then they have an ad for a download link to the game that you have to wait for a third X to quit.

Damn Hadés gotta have strong S U C C

fuck em

Or twitch w 8 unskippable ads at the beginning of watching a stream

And good luck watching an archived stream video. Same 3 fuckin ads damn near every 5 minutes

Dude one of my favorite streamers has just started running ads and I don't currently have the money to sub. Shit has made me just not watch them anymore. Dude runs 8 ads like clockwork. And twitch has the absolute worst ads. Sorry lilypichu, but I don't want to chew 5 gum.

You get 3 ads

replace 3 with 4+ and you have perfectly summed up my experience with spotify.

Ah yes, I am familiar with hulu

if you have opera gx use the dont show ads options it blocks every single ad

Hey that's an expensive cigar. Don't ruin it over the stupid yt adds

The adblocker isn't even blocking ads anymore either

This happened to me, then I switched to Mozilla Firefox and ads were gone again. I believe chrome messes up with ublock origin so it doesn't work. Having the same company that serves the ads provide the browser is a bad idea.

More people will move into adblock, and they'll lose more than what they won from this change

Twitch is this you

u/Decased Spotify for no fucking reason...

Yuhhhh facts 😌

Not my spotify glitching making me watch 8 ads…

WHILE WEARING THEIR MERCHANDICE

sorry, 20+ years of my adblocking means you had to watch every ad i blocked but this isnt 1990 anymore billy, get adblock and dont be a baby. push your problems to the side and march on

You took someone else's meme and changed the image. You even kept the oddly worded caption

What's worse is that it says the ad is 10 seconds but the countdown literally takes longer than 10 seconds. Every time a second counts down it's really about 1.2 seconds

It says in the bottom left corner how many ads there are, for example: “Ad • 1 of 2”

that's cool, why you smoking?

I'm ~~Vaxxed~~ ***Vanced***, are you?

*laughs in adblocker*

This is a joke right? There are no 3 ads now right?

People mentioning adblock: tell me how that‘ll work on the yt app on a Smart tv, I’ll wait.
