What's a good custom ROM for a Samsung Fold 7? Just bought one and it's my dream phone so so I don't want to give it up so soon already, just so I can watch YouTube without ads. Planned on keeping it for at least the next 4-5 years...

You really should have thought about that before buying the device. You cannot install a custom ROM on my Samsung device anymore.

You always have to look at what devices custom ROMs support BEFORE buying them.

If you want to use custom ROMs you have to check support before buying a phone. Fold 7 is not supported by any custom ROMs from what I can see. Also, I'm pretty sure you can just use Fennec with Adblock on stock Android and not have ads.

If you want custom roms, you have a fairly restricted set of options for phones.
