Describe the feature you want

Since NewPipe reads the page html, would it be possibile to load the ads but not showing them, somehow fooling YT ads system? I mean, let them load/play but somehow "in the background", without actually showing them to the user

How will you/everyone benefit from this feature?

This way creators get their money but the user is not bothered with ads

That's a bad idea. It's called ad fraud.
