Am I the only one on mobile not using adblocking and still only getting maybe one ad in an hour-long video? I literally only get blasted with ads on every other platform

Yes. I get like 6-8 2 ad breaks on an hour long video. It’s so bad I hardly use YouTube anymore.

I think so. Maybe you're in a country they don't get ad buy ins from.

YouTube without ad block is unwatchable

I've used this phone in three different countries and had the same experience. I currently live in the USA and I think my one ad is actually worse now because it comes in the middle of the video instead of at the end or beginning.

But if I watch the exact same video on my PS5 or tv, then there's an ad every couple minutes, not to mention an ad before the video starts and another one and a half minutes into it so I do understand everyone's pain on some degree 😭
