You beat me to it.

My wife once asked me why is it so that on our HTPC there are no ads on YouTube and even on Netflix. Now she's hyped to use YouTube on her phone, tablet and her PC after I installed Revanced on her portables and Firefox with UBO+Sponsorblock on her PC.

I also remember frustration of our teachers in uni when they were showing some videos off youtube as an example for the class.

It may be not so obvious to us, but in reality most of internet users have no such tools installed on their systems. They raw dogging the internet.
