Ver vídeos en Youtube es algo que muchos hacemos durante esta cuarentena, pues hay una enorme cantidad de videos de distintas temáticas que hacen que podamos ver contenido muy variado. El problema es que a veces la experiencia se arruina gracias a que los comerciales se apoderan de la pantalla por largos periodos de tiempo. Pero hay una manera muy interesante de evitar verlos sin tener que instalar nada.
El poder de un punto
De acuerdo a una publicación de Reddit realizada por el usuario u/unicorn4sale basta con poner un punto al final del .com para que Youtube deje de mostrar comerciales, al menos si lo estás viendo por medio de tu navegador. Pues este truco no funciona para nada si usas la aplicación de Android o iOS.
Eso quiere decir que si estás viendo un video, la dirección web debe verse como el siguiente enlace:
La diferencia con el link normal de un video es evidente. Como podrás ver, hay un punto extra después del .com y antes del /watch y ya con solo hacer eso puedes evitar que haya problemas de publicidad molesta.
Ahora que si, esto es muy bueno para tu experiencia de visualización pero no lo es tanto para los creadores de contenido, pues es por medio de la publicidad que reciben ganancias por sus videos. Así que si tienes algún creador favorito, intenta apoyarlos con publicidad.
Esto sirve principalmente cuando quieres escuchar música, pues hay veces que no puedes evitar escuchar estas cosas mientras te estás bañando. Claro, para hacerlo desde tu celular debes abrir el video en cuestión desde tu navegador.
Realmente este es un truco muy interesante, sencillo y fácil de aplicar, y aunque seguramente será parchado en algún momento del futuro cercano, es bueno darle un vistazo antes de que desaparezca para siempre.

Watching videos on Youtube is something that many of us do during this quarantine, as there is a huge amount of videos on different topics that make us see very varied content. The problem is that sometimes the experience is ruined by commercials taking over the screen for long periods of time. But there is a very interesting way to avoid watching them without having to install anything.
The power of a point
According to a Reddit publication made by the user or unicorn4sale, it is enough to put a dot at the end of the .com to stop Youtube from showing commercials, at least if you are watching it through your browser. This trick doesn't work at all if you're using the Android or iOS application.
That means that if you are watching a video, the web address should look like the following link:
https://www.youtube.com./watch?v=6hnqLPFn3iY
The difference with the normal video link is obvious. As you can see, there is an extra dot after the .com and before the /watch and just by doing that you can avoid annoying advertising problems.
Now that you've done that, it's very good for your viewing experience but not so good for the content creators, because it's through advertising that they get paid for their videos. So if you have a favorite creator, try to support them with advertising.
This is mainly useful when you want to listen to music, as there are times when you can't help but listen to these things while you're in the shower. Of course, to do this from your cell phone you have to open the video in question from your browser.
This is actually a very interesting, simple and easy trick to apply, and although it will surely be patched at some point in the near future, it is good to have a look at it before it disappears forever.
