Blocking ads permanently

On my Samsung Galaxy S20, I keep getting a stupid ad when I watch YouTube videos. I block it and it keeps popping up. I am going thru the attached screens. How do I get rid of this ad permanently?

I tried restarting. I uninstalled, then reinstalled the YouTube app. Nothing is working. If I'm supposed to sign out of YouTube I don't see an option for that.

This is what happens when you watch Youtube.

Your only options are to pay for Youtube Premium, or to use an ad-free Youtube frontend app.

The ads on Youtube are a big reason why I dont watch things on Youtube very often.

If I do, I often turn to one of the ad-free frontends that also offer background play and downloading of content.

Even so, the majority of what I see on Youtube is AI generated slop that is just taking up space.

Look online for ad-free Youtube apps for android.
