Invidious instances, like Nadeko's instance, will certainly be the thing to do.

I've actually been known to send invidious links instead of YouTube links from time to time, and I should probably do that more.

I seem to remember a way to force my browser to open youtune links in an invidious instance... any idea?

For that, you simply install LibRedirect (a browser extension) on your browser. Using Firefox-based browsers, this is something I will obviously recommend. Set the instance (I use inv.nadeko.net), and you'll watch YT videos ad-free.
