For context, this popped up as I went to the youtube homepage. This is absurd. Of course, I have uBlock Origin, so it doesn't matter to me regardless, but there's no way to say no.

Depends on different devices. On iphones and chrome based browsers (like vivaldi), you can't really install ublock origin. You need to use firefox or a phone browser that already has adblocking functionality like duckduckgo browser or brave. If you're on android then the firefox app can install the ublock origin extension.
Okay I'll go back to using firefox. Yes I'm an Android girl.
For basically anything pro-privacy, Firefox (edit: or derivatives) is the way to go.
