At this point, if someone is not using UBlock and Revanced, it is 100% their fault. Megacorps has very clearly told us that they want ever profits even if it destroys lives, our planet and our future.
- pzo 2y agoI thought ublock stopped working on youtube, did anything changed?
- ajayyy 2y agoyoutube hasn't touched their anti-adblock code since june
- Xiol32 2y agoSaving up all the changes for when they finally drop Manifest V2.
- littlecranky67 2y agoAs a firefox user you won't be affected by that.
- gkbrk 2y agoNever stopped working for me. Haven't seen a YouTube ad in many years.
- Loic 2y agoI am using it with Firefox together with a pie hole equivalent (Mullvad, NextDNS, ...) and my YouTube experience is ad free.
- astrolx 2y agoUblock has been blocking all youtube ads for me for many years (on Firefox).
- actionfromafar 2y agoYoutube seems to pause the video after less than a minute when I use Firefox. Works in Edge, but then there's ads.
- reddalo 2y agoBe sure to use Firefox and "uBlock Origin", not Adblock.
- ahofmann 2y agoublock on Vivaldi here, never saw an ad on YouTube since years.
- qingcharles 2y agoOr paying for Premium. I do that to make sure the creators get something.
- lxgr 2y agoI'd gladly pay for Premium if it didn't come bundled with a completely redundant music streaming subscription.
- x187463 2y agoI have had premium on a family plan for almost as long as it has existed. It's great to add family members who use YouTube on their televisions giving them an ad-free experience without the shenanigans of setting up blockers at a network level. I very much don't understand the opposition to paying for some of the services we use every day. I get not wanted to pay 15-20/month for something like Apple or Disney, if you only want to watch a single show/film. But people act like you are crazy for paying for YouTube or Twitch, meanwhile they lose countless hours experiencing the frustration of advertisements. It's common to find discussions online where people are both completely opposed to paying for YouTube, with no real justification for that position, and highly upset at having to watch ads. Same goes for Twitch, which is arguably worse as the ads interrupt live broadcasts. I use adblock everywhere else, but I thoroughly enjoy not having to worry about it on the platforms I use the most. It's not a scam to pay for something you use and enjoy every day.
- sublinear 2y agoI don't even care about any of that. I simply don't want to log into youtube because the recommendations inevitably turn to shit and I don't want to be stuck with them. The only sane way to use youtube is to never log in and nuke the session every week or so.
- rob 2y agoI disagree. I use it every day for 4 years and the recommendations are great. I don't do any weird things like killing my session.
- brutal_chaos_ 2y agoJust aheads up, one should be using uBlock Origin, not uBlock. In short, AdBlock now owns the old uBlock https://ublockorigin.com/ https://ublockorigin.com/ https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBlock_Origin#uBlock https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBlock_Origin#uBlock
