Some ads (e.g. I know YT ads used to be this way, haven't looked recently) can't be blocked at the network level because they are served from the same domain/servers as the content.

Sure, but have YT Premium for the family. Don't know how anyone can use YT without it. And it blocks 90% of ads, the rest are tolerable / go mostly unnoticed.

With an adblocker..

Why would you need yt premium with an adblocker?

The funniest part of this is that you're paying to still see 10% of the ads. I use Firefox and see 0% of the ads for free

I use a browser with a built-in blocker (Brave Origin) and I don't see ads in YouTube.

Same with ublock origin on firefox, been years since I've seen any ads. There was a period where they tried to break through the blocking and occasionally I'd see one, but it kinda seems like they gave up.

You’re just saying that 90% of your internet usage is YouTube?
