I give up, this has really let me down.
I can’t believe I’m about to suggest this, but use a YouTube short version since those don’t have ads.
You aren’t doing youtube correctly.
PC: firefox + ublock origin, freetube
Mobile: revanced, newpipe
Are you rick-rolling yourself? Derp.
Honestly, I have Firefox + ublock origin in Mobile too
I have all 3 options on mobile as well
and sponsorblock 👌
Same.
How does one Rick roll people who don’t do YouTube correctly, which is most everyone?
Rick Roll is only effective on people using ad blockers
I don’t mind adverts for free services but YouTube take the piss now.
And Amazon. Paying Prime members still have to watch ads.
What ticks me off is Stack TV. I pay for it and I still get huge ads on the bottom and right edges, telling me to subscribe to Stack TV.
Watch this vid for a good explanation on how to avoid the issue:

I was saved by the cookie approval pop-up tho.
It is official, vanilla internet is fucked.
A Rick Roll is a link to a domain that disables your ability to close your browser and maxes your volume.
Youtube links have never been Rick rolls.
If seen a lot of pointless gatekeeping in my day but this one may take the cake for most meaningless.

I disagree. This is an important issue
Hmph, speak for yourself. I dunno how you sleep at night, what with all your illegitimate Rick rolls 'n such

I see someone doesn’t understand the definition of Rick Rolling…
Dude… my kid will never get to experience this. I didn’t even know this existed. Every other one of the links in here was waiting for me to hit play, too.
This is just false, I don’t know where you got this idea
You can’t do either of those things on modern web browsers lol, what are you talking about?
