I just opened youtube, and literally between every video on the home screen was the same adbanner for this stupid movie This was never this extreme for me. Is something similar happening for some of you, or is this just rng?

Sounds like you need uBlock Origin or Invidious/NewPipe.

Super easy to add. Takes less time than sitting through an unskippable YouTube ad.

Not many people here I guess, because most people here use ad blockers.

Naw, haven’t seen an ad in years, because I use Adblockers.
Sounds awful though.

I couldn’t stop giggling at the ad banner I saw for it. Something about imagining Godzilla gnawing on a kong (Dog toy) and losing.

I’m more swarmed with the fact that when I updated my repatched yt app I now have to open videos in Newpipe because videos will usually within in the first couple minutes go to the black buffer screen indefinitely.

Not a one for me. Probably not random, though; I have targeted advertising turned off. Probably you’re recognized as being in a specific demographic they want. Change your settings and see if they go away.
