Youtube links refuse to open in external browser, they always open on YouTube app, even though that's turned off and the app Is set to use external browser. I want my ad blocking please.

Does your phone default to YouTube for link handling? Check your phone settings > Apps > Default Apps > Opening Links > YouTube, then verify that the YouTube app is not set to open any YouTube links.

As a workaround, can you uninstall or disable the YouTube app?
