Use a browser and uBlock Origin.
The YouTube app has become absolutely unbearable. Like please, I don’t want to play games within the YouTube app ffs.

And the browser rather Firefox based ( or at least any browser that supports mv2 ) and yes all of the branches of chromium will not be able to support mv2 forever as google will literally remove it from chromium next year.

My YouTube does not load ads. How do I fix it?
Edit: Ohhh I forgot I have uBlock Origin. Silly me.

I'm sure we've all experienced this to some extent, but I also feel like confirmation bias can play a large role here, so im curious. Is there actually something running in the background that boosts ads over actual content? Is there any literature or first hand employee (YouTube or similar) experience on this

I remember also seeing the explanation on Reddit (or maybe it was Lemmy?), and what you said is basically exactly the same as what I've seen.
-
Now is that seedy or is it just an efficient means of getting both shirt ads and longer form content to the consumer? I also see that thelis question could be subjective.

Different CDNs, I believe

CDN would be my guess as well. Maybe not different, but they would definitely have their ads queued up on every CDN possible while the video content is unlikely to be on your nearest CDN unless it's a Mr. Beast video

Remember when ads were just popup banners on the bottom of the screen?

You dont have this problem nor ads if you download the content in advance with a yt-dlp script.

Which can be obtained here.
