    I'm pretty sure all browsers can block ads on YouTube and other sites. In some the blocker is built in, in others you need an extension. Personally I prefer Vivaldi, which has a built in ad blocker. Brave's business model seems too shady to me with the crypto and replacing original ads with their own ads.

    Yes, I tried Brave browser. But since I care about browsing privacy very much. I relied on the Tor browser because it protects my privacy and there are no ads. Not only on YouTube, but anywhere else on the Internet. "I think other browsers steal user data for advertising purposes."

    Install brave browser to block ads on youtube and 100% of other websites. Plus if you from USA it give rewards for browsing websites. Combine it with Microsoft Edge Rewards.

    Try installing this app called CleanTube.

    It is just YouTube, but with no ads. The ads on YouTube to be honest, are so disruptive.

    I pay premium for YouTube (it is cheaper if you use a VPN). Doesn't DNS-based blocking work for it?
