If you’re just a bit tech savvy and don’t use your tv as your primary YouTube player then it’s reasonably easy to avoid ads and download stuff on YouTube no matter if you’re on Android, PC, or even iOS (yes without jailbreak).
Even with a TV there are options. I know Android/Google TV and LG WebOS both have apps available to sideload.
They patched it a while ago on the webos and I lost the app with an update (either the TV updated itself or someone pressed ok when it prompted). Is there any new way to do so?
