I found a way to block YouTube ads using NextDNS that works.

You did not have to block the subdomains of “googlevideo.com” but “youtube.com” directly once the video you want to watch is playing.

It consists of, once the video is loaded, temporarily blocking the domain “youtube.com”, in this way the ads do not load, while the video loads without any problem.

You can fast forward and rewind the video without any problems, ads will not be played.

The only problem is that you would have to do this for each video, but the important thing is that it works.
