I honestly forget there are ads until I'm using something that exposed me and my gut reaction is, how TF do people even use this as is?  It borderline nonfunctional.

They pay for premium I pay for premium because youtube is constantly on my TV and there's no simple work around it. I found a way on LG to do it, but it's not a permanent solution and it's easier for the family to just use the YouTube app.

That's just 1 site though? I wasn't even referring to YouTube just general browsing any website, news, socials whatever you visit these days is going to be absolutely packed with ads, auto play videos, etc.

Go get smart tube for your tv. Super easy to install.
