People are installing and uninstalling ad blockers in record high numbers as a result of YouTube's anti-ad blocking efforts.

    I recommend using ABD and removing the original app so you don’t accidentally click it again

        I love how none of the people who replied to this comment didn’t notice you were just pointing a typing error 🤣

        Android Debug Bridge - it’s a tool you can use to access parts of Android you don’t normally have access to directly on the phone.

        ADB stands for Android debug bridge. Basically android dev tools that allow you to do stuff with your phone, including uninstalling (or at least the closest you can get to uninstalling) system apps from your phone without rooting your phone.

        It’s great and frees space from your phone, makes your launcher less messy and gives you peace of mind removing apps you don’t want around.

        I personally use and recommend https://github.com/Lorenzoantonelli/TapDebloater/releases/tag/2.0 to easily uninstall system apps through adb.

        I see it’s now archived, but I’ve used it recently and it still works as intended. If someone can provide a better alternative it’s welcome to do so of course
