    Don’t forget the “Video Background Play Fix” add on. That paired with the adblocking makes it where you can watch ad free YouTube while in another app or even with the screen off.

      These two together made me disable the YouTube app on my phone. Firefox is just a much better way to view YouTube.

      I replaced the YouTube app on my SO’s phone with a Brave Browser YouTube link (Brave includes both features out of the box) because having to sit through ads when they wanted to show me a video was driving me nuts…

      I use Firefox because of tamper monkey, buy Brave is my go to easy solution for friends so I don’t have to explain about installing extras.

        You dont need tampermonkey for Ublock Origin and Video Background Play Fix. It’s under add-ons when you go to settings.
