Read this and also take a look at this old thread, so you understand what has been happening https://streamlink.github.io/cli/plugins/twitch.html#embedded-ads https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/3210
If you'd like a truly ad-free experience with no interruptions, it seems the only option is using a proxy to get a playlist from a country where Twitch doesn't serve ads. TTV.LOL can facilitate this. It's probably even possible for someone to modify Streamlink's Twitch plugin to make use of TTV.LOL's API to get an ad-free playlist in Streamlink, but I'm not a programmer, so I wouldn't know how to do that. I can't imagine it'd be very difficult however.
