Unfortunately there is an alternative, pay them. But fuck that.
You could also pay the content creators that you enjoy watching directly. That way you can still have an ad free experience, mostly, while also supporting people making the things you like.
I do support a couple. Patreon doesn't let me cast, I have to click through to YT. Maybe if I got the patreon app? But fuck that too.
