Which VPN adblocker for Youtube ads are you using and is it good?
Hey dear friends.
As the title of this thread, the question is:
Which VPN based (so system wide) adblocker are you using on iOS?
I need mainly YouTube ads to be blocked.
On Android there is excellent (and free) AdAway and there are very big amount of paid options on iOS, just the question which on is good and not expensive?
Looking forward to seeing your recommendation.
Thans!

If you dont mind using youtube in a browser, i recommend Brave Browser. Blocks almost everything.
Vinegar on the AppStore 👍 for YT on iOS
I am using most effective Adblocker on planet - i pay subscription 🤣🤣
Brave is great also in blocking those annoying Cookies approval popups 👍
Amen... Pay for YouTube premium, supporting content creators while getting rid of ads. That's what I do.
And you get Youtube Music as a bonus!
I use Adblock Pro on the App Store on all my devices. Works great on YouTube, as well as annoying pop ups and trackers.
+1 and it's free.
Same, works well. If I want to support a content creator I do so directly. Not by having a shitty experience with the platform.
Double post
I pay less for my YouTube subscription than I do for my VPN subscription!
I subscribed to YouTube until they almost doubled the cost in the UK, greedy greedy greedy… I saw they have 100 million subscribers earlier today, that’s a cool couple of billion a month I reckon…
Do you know if Youtube Music lets you export/save your playlists if you decide yo pause the subscription, or if they are still available if you resubscribe later?
It's the reason I won't subscribe to Apple Music again, they bury all your playlists.
Another point is DRM, using screen recordings for sampling. Apple music blocks the audio which makes it useless on the iPad, the only way is to sample AM through Blackhole or Loopback on a Mac. Can you screen record Youtube Music with audio?
Thanks.
Yeah I do. Can’t imagine having to watch ads anymore. It isn’t very cheap but I owe Youtube creators 99.9% of my viewing entertainment so I don’t mind.
Google made something like 15 BILLION dollars from YouTube Subs last year, they are paying creators less and less and making it harder and harder to get monetized and raising prices. The sickness of greed on this planet is disgusting. Hollywood CEO’s are drawing salaries in the hundreds of millions yet do not want to pay their creators, Musk wants 56 BILLION! Just from Tesla which he did’nt even start.
Don’t get me started on Spotify

You're welcome 😉
My "Robin Hood" solution to the problem is to let my computer watch the ad version, and I enjoy an ad free experience with Brave later: When working, I run a Chrome instance with sound turned down on the second screen and let it watch a play list of one of our YT heroes.
In revenue, not net income. Their cost of revenue is not disclosed. Cost of running data centers etc. is shared with the rest of Alphabet services, not broken down into a separate Youtube cost.
You mean don´t get me started on record labels and how their royalty payouts are not fairly distributed to artists. Their stroke of genius is making Spotify look like the villain, exposing pay per stream to artist and not the much larger pay to label for making the catalog available.
Spotify reported 13B revenue and 10B cost of revenue. Their net income was negative.
Thanks for all your answers and recommendations!
@Gavinski Do users with YouTube premium subscription influence your monetization?
Thanks man. I got some success with blocking YouTube ads at the start of videos but ads during playback still pop out. There are bunch of DNS profiles in the app though. Do you know if any of these servers can bypass also ads during playback on YouTube?
I intended to start a similar thing some time ago, but never followed through. i think I might do so from now.
My idea would be to make a new daily playlist of what i intend to watch, and let them play in a muted tab. Then I'll either use Brave or Jdownloader for my actual watch (Jdownloader, 'cause I find Brave a bit buggy on my iPad and because getting away from browsers is better for me).
Either way, the creator gets a full watch (Including full duration of as many adverts as they care to embed), and I get an ad-free experience. Slightly more upfront hassle, but still a win-win
Yes, a share of YouTube premium revenue goes to YouTubers, in the same way that a part of ad revenue is shared with YouTubers
+1 for brave browser as I have to see any data that shows YouTube premium benefits the creator in a significant way. I am going to be skeptical in that YT themselves are the ones who benefit. But you do what you feel comfortable with.
How I see it is that as admirable the idea of sticking it to the YouTube execs is, it’s impossible to stick it to the YouTube execs without hurting the creators at the same time because it’s impossible to avoid them in the crossfire.
The difference being for the YouTube execs the loss is negligible and probably goes completely without notice whereas to the vast majority of creators it’s huge.
Yup, same here. Also, you get YouTube/Google Music with this, so a subscription to Spotify isn't needed. It's a great 2 for 1 deal. I've had this since it began; absolutely worth it.
I guess the only problem with spooling the ads as well as watching the videos is you’re probably doubling the carbon impact of the view, not much for the individual vid view but over hundreds of millions, those servers are burning a good proportion of what we’re using these days…
A quick Google will show that 55% of Google fees goes to creators. This is the exact same percentage as goes from ad revenue. According to my YouTube data, about 12% of my very meagre YouTube earnings comes from Premium
