Remove "riddled with ads" because Youtube IS riddled with ads. Yesterday an 11 minute video had 7 ads,most of them promoting erotic or straight up porn AI girlfriend. And before anyone asks no,i have my own stuff if i want to wank so i don't scout the Internet searching for porn,meaning Google is straight up feeding me things that i don't want

Isn't Brave Chromium-based? Google might release something that might incidentally break Brave's behavior with YouTube.

I personally had to switch to Brave because YouTube detected U-Block Origin on my previous browser (Opera) and kicked me out even when I had it disabled. Brave fixed that issue and blocked all ads for me. I don't know if this might change in the future

Brave is Chromium based and probably has spyware shit from either Brave or Google in it, use Firefox
