What browser are you using?
Not OP but I get the same thing on Firefox with ublock origin
VPN to Europe? Otherwise not sure how the UK was ever "safe" from this.
VPN to Albania or Monaco since they don't have ads on youtube at all.
Incognito mode works, but you can't see the history
Use a front-end like Piped or Invidious and be happy.
Negative comments and dislikes incoming in 3, 2, 1...
Why do you think you'll be downvoted for that? I see people recommend them literally all the time on similar posts
Firstly. People don't like Piped or Invidious because they often gets broken due to Google's work to try shut them down completely.
Invidious is basically all broken already because of this. And it can be hard to find a good Piped instance that works.
I have Piped installed on my server and it happens that I get "login to prove you're not a bot" or what the error message is.
And secondly. People tend to be very mean online and I don't trust any people until they have proven they are indeed nice and not mean in any way (like judging or trolling).
Lastly. I am in a very bad mood which boosting the second reason.
had the same thing happen today, unlock origin doesn't work anymore. wish they hadn't killed the speedup one bc that compromise works perfect (IMO).
Technically side loading apps should be legal now on iOS in the EU are there any iOS players?
No. Neither is sideloading allowed by Apple, since you still need to pay the 99€ a year to sign your Apps, nor do such players exist because the people who know how to do such stuff have better things to do than spend 2000€ for a MacBook just so some Apple users can usw YouTube for a week before their Dev license gets suspended
And I hate to be that guy, but if you want to own what you paid for, you maybe shouldn't keep pouring Water in form of your money onto the Oil fire that is Apple.

Oh I just read that and assumed there might be something seeing as iPhones are pretty popular phones. I just bought this phone 2 years ago and I’ll probably keep using it till it breaks or stops getting security updates. I don’t really care about phones or computers and will probably go back to a dumb phone once this one breaks.
The brave browser is a pretty good option on iOS, it has a good Adblock and it has support for background audio (assuming you enable it in the browsers settings)
It is one of the only browsers on iOS that I know of that has support for both, meaning you can use it to listen to YouTube music with no ads and with the screen off.
