    This is why I use LibreTube. It just filters all the Shorts

      I’m deep in Apple ecosystem and unfortunately this is not an option on Apple TV as far as I know.

          In case of Apple TV, it’s the smoothest TV software experience, leaps and bounds above any ad-ridden smart TV or aging Nvidia Shield. I used Android TV and it’s just jank. For a time I had HTPC with Kodi too, it’s been relegated to hosting Plex and downloading stuff from Usenet. I enjoyed freedom to install anything but ultimately this didn’t outweight better audio codec support on Apple TV.

              Not sure what you’re making a stab at.

              Apple software is obviously ad free and I have no problem with paying for YouTube Premium due to value it provides. Some good soul on Lemmy also recommended me a way to block sponsored content via isponsorblocktv which is a script that runs on my server and skips sponsored segments by reading YouTube app state and sending fast forward commands like a remote would.

                Not sure what you’re making a stab at.

                The fact that you’re calling Android “ad-ridden” (which it’s not) in a conversation about how you can’t remove ads on Apple devices.

                  I called smart TVs ad-ridden, might have been bad wording on my part.
