Before you say it: I do use Adblock on my computer but sometimes YouTube updates their site to make those not work, and sometimes I browse on my phone which doesn’t have Adblock

    I don’t know how, my phone is old-ish and almost out of storage space, and I’d like to replace it with a new phone when I can decide on what suits my needs and I can splurge the money on it

    Edit: also, most of the time I can just refresh the page on my phone and the pre-video ad on YouTube goes away. This doesn’t work for mid-video ads, which I just got in the middle of a song on YouTube 🙃

      That makes sense. Firefox has some good extensions, if you just want it browser-based on your phone, and f-droid has some whole-phone options. Just FYI in case you’re able to take advantage of one now or at some point in the future.

      Edit: Also, does your phone have an SD card slot? If so, that can be an inexpensive way to boost storage and get more life out of your phone.
