If you don't want to sign up for Youtube Premium, you can get a three month free trial if you're happy to sign up to the basic Google One service for £1.60 pm. You can cancel at any time.
Be warned though, if you use Youtube a lot it will be very hard to go back to seeing ads again afterwards.
I know its a lot of money but for me its better value than Netflix. I watch Youtube videos a lot for hobbies etc

Also not a fan of the 3rd party youtube apps I've tried.
I used Vanced and have never had a problem with it. It's basically the same except you can play videos in the background. I can't remember what one I use on our Firestick, but yeah that's a bit more flaky and often requires updating. Still preferable to the ads tho.

I've looked into blocking them with PiHole but it's either not easy or not possible. Very appreciative of AdBlock for the desktop but no joy with phone/tablet/TV. Also not a fan of the 3rd party youtube apps I've tried.
I've never seen any of these shitty ads people are mentioning tho'. All mine are legit broadcast-style commercials, usually just cut down to 15 seconds or a minimum time before they can be skipped. Do get the repetition, which is very annoying and counterproductive.
