try sponsorblock or uBlock. Or some other third party apps. I've decided the inconvenience of watching youtube in a browser (with addons) outweighs the inconvenience of watching several long ads. At least for me.
You're right. it's uBlock or some other addition that removes the pre-roll ads. But googling for Sponsorblock is a good start to find such apps. I even got some patched youtube app for my TV... So it's no ads for me and not even sponsored segments. Not on the computer, not on my phone and neither on the TV.
It is an ad-jumper!
