YouTube Ads Appear Every Few Minutes and Ruin the Viewing Experience

I am a student who has been using YouTube.com for many years, and I am seriously disturbed by the excessive number of ads on the platform. I have been using YouTube since 2015, and especially recently, ads appear in almost every video at intervals of 5–10 minutes, often back-to-back. Having this many ads in a single video completely ruins the viewing experience and feels almost like harassment. YouTube Premium subscription fees are also quite expensive for students, and it is unrealistic to expect everyone to be able to afford this every month. I am a student, and because my financial situation does not allow it, I cannot subscribe to Premium; however, this should not mean that I must be exposed to such an overwhelming number of ads. What I expect from YouTube is to reduce ad frequency to a reasonable level for free users and to offer a truly student-friendly, affordable Premium option specifically designed for students. I request that an urgent adjustment be made on this issue.
