I watched a Warframe (game) YouTube video on the Steam integrated browser, without beeing connected to my account and Holly s* it was horrible.

In a 14 minutes video, I got 5 ads. 1 (or more skippable once) at the beginning, 1 during the first half of the video, 2 during the second half, and 1 at the end.

All were skippable after 5 sec.

2 were close together at about 1 min interval during the second half of the video.

But that is not the only issue. 4 of those ads (not the last one at the end), were Israeli hate/war anti-hamas propaganda.

I consider these ads horrible and they should not be allowed in my opinion.

Why don't you help her? Do you not like her??

She's drowning and you're just standing there watching :( :(

I've offered. It doesn't bother my partner.

You’re assuming I haven’t tried?

Not OP but I run a Pi Hole for the home network, but don’t intrude to install software on her laptop.

I wouldn't intrude but I'd at least offer.

I get to choose what software my wives PC runs and how, and she gets to not worry about problems on it.

We'll, for the most part. She insists on Windows and I insist that every time something is wrong it's Windows fault.
