Then add another filter list. I added the French Easylist to mine and now it blocks 99.9% of ads. I haven't seen an ad on youtube in years.

Then they can make a short ad I don't mind but seriously what's with these 30+ secs (several minutes sometimes) ads that can't be skipped

Oh, don't worry, I feel your pain.

I hate ads too. Especially that seven-minute one with some "get rich quick" guy with a Lambo and a Ferrari. I'm so glad I can skip that one.

There was an image on Reddit of a seven-minute Youtube ad that was unskippable.

I read that as the cop from The Sandlot. With the echoing repeats and zooming in on your mouth

Besides, forum ads on the main site are actually non-intrusive. No ads in posts, no ads between every post, no sponsored posts, and especially none of those fucking stupid Viglink text ads.

Adblock for youtube.

For TV shows I just use Netflix or other sites that record and cut out commercials.

There's ads on youtube?

Hmm, I guess I've been using Firefox with Adblock plus for so long I forget that the internet even has ads on it.

I can live with conventional ads. What I can't live with is native advertising: ads that look like news articles but are actually ads. If I'm not fully alert, I sometimes don't notice that I'm reading a multi-page article that is about Coca-Cola or Tide or whatever the f**k.

Besides the HeadOn commercial, none of those ads were legitimately annoying, especially that Six Flags commercial. That one's funny.
