When I use YouTube at work I get constantly shown ads, but when I use YouTube at home I'm almost never shown ads. Why the difference? I'm logged into the same account on both.

Do you have an adblocker at home but not at work?

Yes, that's probably it. Thanks. I feel silly for not realizing this.

Youtube without adblock is atrocious. Half the time if an ad starts my phone will just... stop loading the video indefinitely. Fucking ads.

I use uBlock Origins, which is very good for websites, I think, but doesn't seem to do anything for YouTube. Any recommendations?

I use Origins, too. It keeps ads off Youtube for me. Did you white list it or something?
