  It’s built in on free apps that block the rest of the ads.

  There are a few apps you can get for like Google TV (nvidia shield etc…) Like smartyoutubetv. But they’ve gotta be side loaded. So you need to install some way to get the APK on the device. It’s all diable, but it’s a pain.

  I’d prefer just paying and losing the ads. Since I’m dreaming, I’d also like a check box to remove shorts all together from my experience.

    You can probably bribe a tech-savvy friend to do it for you with a fraction of YouTube’s yearly cost

      I actually don’t mind paying for stuff I use or get value from.

      I do have smartyoutubetv Installed on both an Nvidia Shield and a Google TV, I originally did it when my kid was on a child account but couldn’t sign into the Google yt app. I kinda wish Futo would make a TV version of Grayjay I’d probably use it.

      I use premium for both YouTube and yt music and it’s our primary music streaming service too. I even have 11 CCA (Chromcast audios) powering rooms all over the house where we listen to ytm from.
