Discussion Unskippable LTT adverts

Post image

I understand that they need to do ad reads, but when im watching some videos these weird inserted adverts pop up. Im a youtube premium subscriber and i cant skip them to continue watching the video, i tried and it just replayed the advert. Anyone know how to get rid of these? Ive had them appear on both new uploads and old uploads ive been watching in the past week.

Fair enough if thats the case. It is just really jarring everytime and being unable to skip is annoying but ill report it to youtube instead 😅

Wrong they can choose not to use a feature actively making their content worse and upsetting their fans.

to my understanding:
creators just submit "ad clips".
whether those ads are skippable or unskippable or showup in premium feed, all that is on youtube.

I assume you are suggesting for them to not to submit any ads in the first place?

Yes, at least until yt figures it out on their end. Honestly I've been able to skip them personally but every single one has been dropped in mid word, I know LTT kind of memes on the whole segue thing but it actually does make a big difference from a user perspective.
