Unless you subscribe, they have to pay for their services somehow. CentralMass Mar 23 #1

If you use the DuckDuckGo browser you can have the videos run in their 'Duck Player' SeattleVet Mar 24 #2

No ads (except the in-content ones which are easy to scroll past). You also lose the comments and right sidebar with the 'suggested' videos, but it seems to have been working pretty seamlessly for me. Some videos do require viewing in YT instead of the DuckPlayer (but I generally skip those unless it's something I *really* want to see).
