Where?
Oh! On the web interface? n_n I don't use the web interface. It's video, so I use a video player. I see no ads, ~ if I do [like ads read out by the podcast host], I skip ahead.
That's where you went wrong. Come to the free software community. We can mend bugs (like malicious features (like ads)) with free software, being free to use, study, share & change the software.
That's what Sponsorblock is for. :)
