Please tell me a simple, idiot-proof way to block YT ads on all devices incl. Mobiles, Shield etc. that doesn’t require something complex like piHole, works outside the home (family’s phones etc. ), and doesn’t risk blocking stuff it shouldn’t. That’s my trouble. Premium solves all of that, while bringing other small benefits. Maybe there’s a better way.

Easy peasy. Lemon squeezy.

Firefox-ublock (even better on Linux but not required)

Revanced for mobile.

Pihole doesn’t stop youtube ads anyhow.

  OP just needs to switch to Linux and set up a pihole.

I’m in the same boat, but I think this hike still will make me cancel my family plan. Less time on YouTube is probably good anyway.
