On android, I use Seal. Its basically a frontend for yt-dlp and has a sponsor block feature.
Honestly, I'm ok with at least giving channel ad reads a shot. Those aren't based on my watch history/search history and the channel owner actually gets a good cut. Almost nobody can make a living with google ads.
