I started using ytp-dl and mpv after receiving those adblock warnings. My life is now 420% better because I stopped reading Youtube comments as a side-effect. Also, mpv is 5 billion times better player than any web browser media player can ever be.
It heavily depends on the content. While on dumb Videos there are dumb comments and on Minecraft Videos there are childish ones on the high quality of entertainment I watch only perfectly balanced comments are shown.
It’s true that they’re less “facepalm-inducing” under the smarter videos, but any entertainment video with wide enough appeal is gonna be littered with comments that will make you feel like you’re having a stroke while reading them. It usually gets worse if the channel is more family friendly, I assume because the YouTube algorithm serves it to kids a lot more.
Doing that since 2018 methinks, enjoying the gigachad life and refuse to go back to web browser streaming. Glad to see more people are becoming enlightened.

i installed karamel and now my comments are from reddit posts that discuss the video i’m watching. i find that to be really helpful.
What’s that?
an extension.
Looks like it’s only available on Chrome based browsers, oh well.
Why do you consider not reading comments an improvement? Just asking because I’m curious.
The vast majority of YouTube comments are incredibly dumb. I hope the reason is that it’s mostly kids.

I prefer to knowingly commit mental suicide, like by coming here.
The comments are the best part
The only thing worse than youtube video comments are youtube short comments. Not even reddit can match that level of unrepentant nazism.
I want my life to be 69% better. Did you follow a good guide? Do you recall which guide it was?
The best guide there is. My brain.
