YouTube ads are getting more frustrating, with some users reporting unskippable ads that are nearly an hour long. Are ad blockers to blame?

        Probably to let us know mobile and PC variants.

        I am wondering the same, mentioning the specific hardware makes very little sense, when it could just be mentioned as Linux/Windows/PC and Android/GrapheneOS/etc.

        It would arguably be more informative too for people looking for alternatives for their device platforms.
