    I have a YouTube premium subscription for one reason: I travel a lot and you can’t put an adblocker on an old hotel TV that only has the YouTube app

    Once I get to travel less, I’ll go back to only using ublock origin and sponsorship block.

      You can try buying an android tv box or hooking up your laptop+wireless keyboard to a hotel TV and install adblock that way.

        True, but flying with that much equipment sucks. Going through the TSA line, getting hit for inspection, just adds more pain.

        Plus, after flying 6 hours, all I want to do is either screen share or log in and not have to worry about setting stuff up.
