On iOS, I’ve discovered that I can uninstall the YT app, set Firefox Focus as my default browser, and then use PocketTube linked to my YT account to open a group playlist, and it plays in FF Focus without ads… so far.

@mateomaui This was in Firefox on my desktop machine. I don't have iOS but under Android I installed ReVananced works great! https://revanced.net/youtube-revanced (it also needs microG: https://revanced.net/microg)

Is this a global thing? I never saw that popup and was thinking maybe they are directing this only at the US and Europe. I am in north Africa and YouTube premium isn’t even available (not that I’d pay for that overpriced bullshit).

@nobloat then it's most likely only a US & EU thing. Good to know, I can fake my origin.
