I have adblock on my Mac, but not on the PS5. Whenever I watch YouTube on my TV via PS5, I have to open and close videos sometimes 10 or 15 times before they just play the video I've clicked on and not some obnoxious 45 second long advert for some bullshit I don't want and won't use. Honestly not sure why YouTube finds it so hard to play the video I clicked on and not random other videos. I also tend to stop watching vids as soon as an ad break happens.

I work with a marketing department full time and they're exactly as annoying as expected, always pissing about on tiktok or Instagram creating shit that nobody could possibly feasibly care about.

Is there an alternative to YouTube on PS5 that doesn't have adverts? Or is there some way to get adblocking on there?

Easy fix: HDMI cable from the laptop to your TV to watch youtube.

I believe you would need a pihole, is like a ad block but in the entire network, so you could even use the official youtube app on a tv and not get any ad
