Some would argue the way the system is built calls for this kind of shit.

YouTube wants to make money. More ads=more money. More ads and people still use our platform? Let's put even more ads.

It's called Metonymy. The word "Youtube" is representative of the developers and management working for said company.
Metonymy is a figure of speech in which a thing or concept is referred to by the name of something closely associated with that thing or concept for example suit for business executive, or the track for horse racing.

News flash... "staring" and "writing" are not synonyms.

I mean I guess? The algorithm isn't perfect but it is a good way to access a lot of free content in visual form (video). There will always be those who abuse it to clickbait more views.

Yeah I get that but they should reduce ads or at least let ad-blockers through because the ad blockers I tried didn't work for YT.

"They"? You mean the owners of a for-profit company should let you use their product for free and let you block the advertisers who finance your free service?
