My kid discovered that he can hit the "report" button on the YouTube app on the TV to skip the ads immediately. So now every ad gets reported as "inappropriate".

I'm proud of him.

Tip: if you have an Android TV, you can install SmartTube as an alternative, privacy-friendly YouTube client. It has no ads and sponsorblock integration

And as a better option, use an actual device instead of a short lifecycle planned obsolescence embedded android device on a "smart" tv.

AndroidTV also exists on Chromecast devices...
AndroidTV is not exclusive to TV manufacturers.
