The link you have submitted is an AMP link These have be criticised by many people for a variety of reasons. In view of that we encourage users to not use AMP links for submissions but instead to use the actual URL linked to publishers site.

YouTube to start blocking third-party apps that don't show ads
Can't recommend SmartTube enough: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube
Includes crowdsourced sponsor block as well. The day YouTube goes the Twitch route and starts embedding ads is the day I stop using it. Literally unwatchable at this point without adblocking.
