And I just followed instructions on this page

And it fixed it
Vanilla Brave blocks ads and doesn't show the blocker. Ublock & Better YouTube will cause it to trigger. Tampermonkey script prevents the blocker from appearing after disabling/enabling Ublock for a video or two.
Fuck YouTube and Google. They make enough money selling my data.
Edit: Okay I get it guys, Brave bad
Grayjay is the best all in all app for Android and Invidious Cross Platform. It syncs everything.
Definitely not blocking here.. but.. I have to ask. Which takes precedence, YouTube's T&C's or EU law?
Oh look! This shit again. Lemmy is becoming more repetitive than 4chan
It has? 🤔
Just checked for myself and I'm not getting any popups, but perhaps it just hasn't quite hit my region yet?
EDIT: I'm fascinated by the childishness of those who are complaining about the $10. Not only you don't have to pay it, and not only that it's open source, and not only the intentions are clear on why it's not a permissive license made to fight filling average Joe with malware like always being done with NewPipe and others on Play Store, but also you can pick your poison. Would you like google to win this dumb war on ad blockers? Or would you like to support non-perfect people making FOSS apps for your benefit? I really don't get you, guys. Pick your battles! Take the win and shut up for once!
Love the Ficsit mug in the photo 😆
I just use the Vivaldi Browser and watch all my YouTube in browser. shrug
I only use Firefox for youtube and nothing else... it still just works the same as ever - the only ads I see are the ones the creators make themselves for sponsors. I only use Chromium-based browsers for anything that has nothing to do with google...
Until yesterday I was blocked from youtube, despite using UBO. Today it works. I don't know if it is random or if UBO does something. Possibly it will stop working again. In any case I started using piped (hope they don't decide to do something with it).
UBO updates their filters when they can, as they find and fix changes.
Youtube directly responds to those patches by updating their system. Last I checked, they do this twice a day.
Any time your UBO isnt stopping youtube, you are using filters from before youtubes last update. Opening your UBO settings, clearing and updating your filters, and refreshing your browser fixes this.
The only time it doesnt is if UBO hasnt patched youtubes most recent changes. This window of time is teeeny tiny.
Haven't seen an anti-adblock message yet, and I block ads in all sorts of ways across my devices.
I haven't seen an ad on YouTube in several years. Doubt I'll ever see one.
No they don't.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
