works like a charm.
AdGuard but it seems like google is going to war against adblockers or something.
I don’t know but they’ll never get a dime from me for YT.

YouTube ads in Safari: why do you see them and can they be removed?
Content blocking in Safari is a thing in and of itself, and it's not good. One of the consequences is ads appearing in YouTube. Why does it happen and can it be prevented?

Can’t ever convince me to pay for YouTube Premium.
Sucks for the Mac that AdGuard isn’t free like iOS. Wish 1Blocker would figure it out.

It still is not free but adguard is running a 40% off of all licenses right now. Can't advise how long it will be like this but if you want to act, now would be the best time.
You can’t block ads with iPad for youtube.
You have to do it with your router settings or look at the youtube videos out side of youtube and watch the video there.
Or get a desktop computer or laptop running windows using firefox and get adblock extension.
Is there a paid solution that works across both macOS and iOS? Preferably one-time purchase.
Can you clarify? "Adguard"? Or "Adblock"? There is no Adblock guard app that I can see.
YouTube has demonitized and even shut down people for putting bonafide TRAINING videos up, or just for having a not-so-politically-correct viewpoint on life.
So I've demonitized YouTube by blocking ads. And I skip any that might come through.
To Google: Your interpretation of copyright law sucks. Your automatic methods suck for copyright demonitization and shutdowns. You get it wrong more than you get it right. I could play a sequence of chords for a Led Zep song and you'd block it. It's not even the melody.
You and your methods suck, and that hurts good people trying to do good things. So come at me, bro. I'll respond by helping all of my friends and family demonitize you back! You've already p*ssed me off more than enough for a lifetime.
I'm ready to tear it all down and I'm ready to change copyright law so that public domain is eligible after 10 years, not the stupid 70 that's currently in place. THIS is where we are right now and I'm ready to start hassling my legislators to do this. When I'm done, EVERY DAMNED THING MADE OLDER THAN 2012 WILL BE FREE TO PLAY IN PUBLIC AND FREE TO POST ON YOU*TUBE.
Tell me, Google, what will you do when there are suddenly 452,000 versions of "Stairway to Heaven", and half of them are mine? Things that make you go "hmmmm...."
