    I remember back when YouTube had ads. Haven’t had that issue for years now though.

          They still do on my other browsers when you start watching videos.

          In my main browser, they took out the entire Explore section so I can’t even see what’s trending. Lol.

        And this is the problem with YouTube. The UI is awful and they keep degrading the experience
