Edit: Guys. I think a lot of you missed where I said EASIEST METHODS.

Easiest methods to ditch Youtube ads:

PC: Firefox + uBlock Origin
Mac, option 1: Safari + AdGuard
Mac, option 2: Firefox + uBlock Origin
Android, option 1: Youtube ReVanced (FYI: ALL Play Store listings for this are fake; the official site is revanced.app and is the only place to get it)
Android, option 2: Firefox Mobile + uBlock Origin
iPhone/iPad: Safari + AdGuard

For those who may have heard about Pi-hole and are wondering why it's not on this list: PI-HOLE DOES NOT BLOCK YOUTUBE ADS. IT NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL.

Can I block youtube ads with a transparent proxy like squid ? What about a self-hosted youtube auto-downloading queue list ? I'm fine with .mp4 files !
