Skipping the Ads
If you’re like us, you hate YouTube ads with every fiber of your being. The last thing you want to see while watching a three-hour-long video about the evolutionary history of crabs is an ad for Raid: Shadow Legends or whatever the latest crypto wallet app is.
There’s a simple hack you can try to skip past all the ads. Just manually scroll to the very end of the video and hit the replay button. Fast-forwarding by tapping the screen multiple times won’t work. Note: This hack no longer works. YouTube updated its system so that even skipping to the very end won’t get rid of the ads.
