Speaking of, does anyone know how best to block YouTube ads on my Sony TV? It uses Android and I have the YT app on it.

Pihole maybe. Even though I have heard its not as reliable lately

You can’t block YouTube ads with PiHole generally because the ads come from legitimate Google domains so you can’t block them easily

I see. That is why I said maybe as I was not sure.

Install SmartTube and use that instead of the official YouTube app.
It’s even better than the real YouTube app because, unlike that, it’s native.
