    I don’t have control over a lot of things with my work laptop, since it’s owned/controlled by the company. However, if it doesn’t require an install, then I’ll try that when I get back on Monday. We use Chromebooks (ugh), but any way I could get around ads would be a blessing. Thank you for the suggestion, I’m open to any ad-blocking options I could use.

      Hmmm 🤔 All Chromebooks use Chrome as a web browser, right? Can’t you just add an adblocker extension?

      After a small web search, this seems to be the recommended solution:
      https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/adguard-adblocker/bgnkhhnnamicmpeenaelnjfhikgbkllg

      There’s also https://pie.yt/ which lets you watch yt video adfree straight from the browser. It looks OK to me, no suspicious 3rd-party scripts/requests.
