    Yes but I am looking for an option for my TV. Not to interested in sending everything from my iPad to my TV, I may break because the ads on youtube are so annoying.

    I have a pi 5 that I am considering using as an option but I I do like the idea of having a remote control.

        There are Firefox derivatives which are functionally equivalent for these purposes.

        I use Zen browser but there are others. These still rely on Mozilla for primary browser engine development but is independent and community-driven.

      If you’re into, or don’t ming getting into self hosting, I use iSponsorBlockTV. It keeps tabs on all the Chromecast or smart TVs in your house and automatically sends skip commands when you get to in segment ads.

      I have Premium so I don’t have regular ads, but I belive it can do that as well and if not, pairing it with a traditional DNS blocker like a piehole should do the job.

      I have the osmc remote which I believe you should be able to make work on a pi 5 and kodi . Probably other choices too, pishop.ca has many options.

      Magic Youtube is a Chrome addon I use to block youtube adds (in addition to other features). Available anywhere you use chrome, but I think there’s also a firefox version.
