Removing ads from Smart TV YouTube app (feddit.nl)

I don't know if this is the correct community to post this. I have a Smart TV from a Greek manufacturer named TurboX. Not Android TV, Smart TV. This means that it has Internet access, has some pre-installed apps, but I can't install any other apps on it. The menus thankfully don't have any ads. However, the Youtube app has. I highly doubt there is any way to remove those, but if you guys know or found any, can you let me know?

Thanks.

Can confirm. Pi-hole does not block YouTube smart TV app ads. Hasn't for a long time (2018ish?)

I use sefiniks (sp?) lists which has a YouTube list but no luck.
