I tried Adblock Plus just now, it skips ads quickly on youtube rather than blocking them, unacceptable. Just installed Adguard still have to see how it holds up. What are you using? I'll switch browsers if need be, which is what seems to be the advice from people in the know, but for now i'd rather use what i know in Chrome.
Edit: I'm talking desktop, feel free to suggest mobile options as well.

Also which video speed up plugin do you use? Im on this one.
It does primarily what it's supposed to do but can be wonky about changing the settings.

I know..I've been told. Just what i'm used to. Firefox, Brave? What would you suggest?

I'm Samsung internet gang because I like customized toolbar and built in video player. Can download videos straight from the site

But everyone got their preferences. I know a lot of people fukk with brave and Firefox(despite its privacy concerns as of late)

Brave has the best built in adblock. I think Brave also works the best across the mobile platforms.

Firefox still supports the ubo extension and plans to keep doing so. Firefox has kinda shytty mobile apps.

Other forks or browsers won't be as effect as the above options.

There's so many free YouTube alternative players on Android. I suggest NewPipe or Tubular. Brave might have background playback for iOS. Someone try that out and report back.

switched to brave. was gonna switch to firefox but that shyt is old tech and slow AF

It is good for Windows desktop, but that's all they really seem to care about. It is ass on every other platform, except maybe iOS because they have to use the Safari engine there.
