I have been adblocking on YouTube for as long as I remember.
Personally I think it's unusable without an adblocker.
What's the alternative? Because I am not suddenly going to pay for a platform that keeps getting worse all the time.
And unfortunately IDK of any alternatives to YouTube. A big part of the problem is that some of my favorite creators only upload to YouTube. I don't want to switch to an alternative and lose a large percentage of the content that I like to watch, that would be pretty shitty.
There is peertube. I'm not familiar with its limitations. Technically it is possible for someone to try and track your activity because it's P2P.
The content is currently
lacking. I'm kind of wondering what limitations are in place for each user to upload video. Can someone make a bot to start reuploading content from their favorite streamers?
