Could you please tell me what "Youtube-blocking Safari extensions" are you referring? Are they MacOS only or can be installed on IPad? Thanks!


I can recommend Wipr 2 - excellent blocker from a great developer. I've now switched to Safari for all my YouTube watching. Universal purchase works on macOS, ipadOS and iOS.


I just downloaded it.

It works way better for Youtube than the one I had, and after some more testing I don't need the additional annoyance blockers I had. I might just go back to Safari!

Thanks for the recommendation.


Sure! AdBlock Pro blocks video ads for me, but it shows non-video ads that you gotta skip.

On iPad I just use Brave and haven't seen an ad yet.
