  1. Only for Safari users
    1. Press command and comma -> Command + ,
    2. Click Advanced tab
    3. Click ✅Show Develop menu in menu bar
  2. Goto www.youtube.com
  3. Click any video you want. This step is important.
  4. Open Web Inspector
    1. Click Command + Shift + c(Mac) or Ctrl + Shift + c for windows users.
    2. Now click in between Search bar and Ad section. Here is image how to select. This should be exactly where I have clicked.
    3. Once you get exactly same region as shown in image above, click left button on your mouse.
    4. Now you will see Web Inspector.
    5. You don’t need to do anything with inspector. Just click delete button on your keyboard.
    6. Now press Command + option + i for Mac and F12for windows to clear Inspector view.
    7. That’s all for side ad. You won’t see side ad on youtube.
  5. What about Banner Ads that appears on top of video?
    1. You can try same approach mentioned above for side bar ad.
    2. Press Command + Shift + c(Mac) or Ctrl + Shift + c for windows users.
    3. Hover over banner ad. You can even search for html code in inspect view which I have mentioned below as Banner ad html code.

Banner ad html code.
<div class="video-ads ytp-ad-module" data-layer="4"></div>

Boom. Ads are gone. Now you can use youtube with ads.

Just remember don’t reload youtube by clicking reload button or reload shortcuts. You can click youtube logo to go to youtube home page. You can search videos. All the changes we did will intact.

I hope this will help you remove ads without plugin or I hope you at least learnt few new things regarding web browser.

Let me know if you do have any confusion on the steps mentioned above. I will be happy to help.
