I’m the same. It is quite jaring to see an add now. They seems very obnoxious.
The only issue in have is ads in podcasts. This isn’t a huge deal as the provider usually determine add based on IP so i get a 30 second ad in a language I can’t understand.
Any solutions to this?
P.S. before I switched from YouTube I disabled all data collection and personalisation a few notable ads I used to receive:
Ads for balls soap (this ad was repugnant)
Ads for Muslim speed dating, with male chaperone (I’m not a Muslim)
A 1hour Chinese party political conference, in Chinese (I don’t speak Chinese)
^ Ive got the last one saved out of curiosity.
I remember a time when YouTube was not owned by google and was ad free.
The internet was better before all of this tracking.
