YouTube viewers will soon have to sit through even longer ads, with Google rolling out new 30-second unskippable spots on a popular app.

Yeah thats enough to push me off the main app, I was already annoyed by the ads, the fact they are going unskippable is a end gamer for me
I just wished there was a app i could load onto my tv and play the videos on there ( i have a samsung so suggestions welcome)
While cstom ROMs of Android TV do exist, Samsung does not want you to truly own your device and has locked it down. The only option I see is to use your TV as a dumb TV: hook up any PC to your TV’s HDMI ports (I use a Raspi 5 running Ubuntu for that). The PC gives you full control over what you want to install, which may include an adblocker in the browser or free YouTube frontends such as FreeTube.
Frustrating but predictable by Samsung thanks.
I do have a steam deck connected so I can look at using that to run a browser
Buy an Android TV box (can be a cheap one), and install SmartTube: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube
