On Linux or Windows? Firefox + uBlock origin (there’s nothing better than that)

On Mac? Firefox + uBlock origin (worse alternative: Safari + AdGuard, since you might synch browser with iPhone)

On Android? Firefox + Privacy Badger + uBlock Origin

On iOS? Safari + AdGuard + Vinegar + Baking Soda

On SmartTV it’s different.

Hardest overall solution: Get yourself a Pi-Hole https://pi-hole.net/

For WebOS TVs use this: https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos

Android TVs should get SmartTube: https://github.com/yuliskov/smarttube#smarttube-old-name-smarttubenext

RokuTVs got either this thing: https://channelstore.roku.com/en-ca/details/840aec36f51bfe6d96cf6db9055a372a/playlet or the open source alternative: https://github.com/iBicha/playlet

I look forward to the day apple is forced to allow other browser engines to run on iOS.

Unfortunatly, they were smart. To the average lawmaker, Firefox, chrome, edge, etc all run on ios, so there's no issue.

Pi-Hole works for YouTube on gaming consoles aswell!

And for Samsungs tizen os smart TV's tizentube for YouTube with a pi hole for the ads in the interface.
