Well I'm sure everybody here on Lemmy already uses ublock. The rest of society doesn't really know all these methods
Adblocking on mobile is much harder than adblocking on desktop, and if you're in an emergency situation like the one described, you're more likely on your phone.
Personally I use ReVanced, which incorporates adblocking as well as giving you Premium features like background playing & PIP (while also keeping the benefits of being signed in to YT, like using your playlists, comments, etc.). But if I were an iPhone user I don't know how I would watch YouTube.
Revanced is complicated because you first need to find a compatible YouTube version (old version) and download it's APK. Then, you need to uninstall YouTube, apply Revanced to the downloaded APK and then install it Only to discover the Cast button was removed by Revanced. When you start over, deselect "remove cast button from video player", you still end up without it.
I can't even cast to SmartTubeNext on AndroidTV..
Way too complex and too limiting for 99.99% of YouTube watchers.
Maybe NewPipe is something for you, as it has most of the features mentioned above and is easy to install via F-Droid. I'm using it for years now and really love it!
NewPipe does not have cast functionality and doesn't include Sponsorblock.
I think there even is an app called "NewPipe Sponsorblock" on F-Droid but I dunno about the cast function.
