    And it’s worse for users without ad block. Google is just making YouTube worse. My gf got a 53 minute ad the other day… It looked like it was going to be an entire presentation from that company, I don’t remember which because we obviously skipped it.

      That’s been around for a while now. Pretty sure the length on skippable ads can be significantly longer than unskippables. I remember once getting the entirety of the Lego movie as an ad once as part of the marketing for the sequel.
