"Only fans of X will get this"

AAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!

Imagine if comedians did this shit in the middle of their set?

Car traffic is beyond insane in Dublin now. Tempted to get one of those e scooters

Youtube adverts I have mentioned them a few times here but they have now gotten worse again. Most videos now are giving me a 15sec non skippable advert which is one of two when I put them on. Was watching the UFC press conference last week just after it aired live and I was literally having adds pushed on me every 3 mins. I find myself watching more and more of Rumble these days because of this. The firestick seems to be the worst place for adds I don't seem to get as many on my laptop maybe because of Adblocker.

Stick this on your firestick - works perfectly and  no ads!

Edited for correct link

Thanks I will try that but my firestick has a tendency to just lock up, move really slow and constantly crash when I install software on it that Amazon doesn't want me having.

On YT videos, to skip ads. Scroll to the very end of the video and then hit the repeat circle in the center of the screen.

I don't think I can do that on a firestick.

I wish nothing but pain and misery on everyone at Swappie.

Youtube Vanced is what you need

For Android phones or tablets Vanced is essential!!! On the Firestick it doesn't work that well and is a dog to navigate. At least it was the last time I tried it.

Get premium. Better investment than Netflix and you can download videos, get YouTube music which is excellent aswell.

Yeah and even if you cast it the ads still play.

Because of the sheer annoyance they have caused with the adds and all the banning along with the censorship I would never get premium. I think youtube is a sinking ship that won't be around in a few years. I have too many subscriptions as it is IPTV, Hulu, Peacock, Crave and a few others.

The censorship is totally cunty but you can still watch Gavin McInnes and pals handy enough, they just won't appear on the feed. Nevertheless, I understand the principle.

My young lad has my feed all gone to bawlix with the absolute shite he watches. He plays video games while watching some other fucking prick playing the game on YouTube on the iPad. I forced him to join a rugby club a couple of months ago so they can beat it out of him because I'm not allowed to.
