Works 100% of the time for me. So far, anyway.

    I keep using youtube with ublock out of spite. I have a local copy of invidious running and all my subscriptions are copied over. I know it’s more private and I won’t have to keep jumping though hoops, but I just want to defeat Google’s ad block blocker as long as I can.

    strange, I swear I tried this 2 days ago, and then it didnt work.

    so today, I tried my best to do a “hard reset” by resetting uBlock to defaults, then uninstalling it, and then installing it fresh and following this “guide”.

    I still get the pop-up. Not sure if they’ve already been hot-fixing the work arounds?

      They keep hotfixing it all the time. I haven’t used YouTube today, but I wasn’t getting the popup yesterday.

    I’m not getting ads but did get the adblocker pop-up for the first time today, and a few hours saw Rossmann published a video about the adblocker fight. Now I see this post. Did something happen today specifically?

      Me too. Like 45 minutes after his video went up, I started getting the pop-up.

      No ads, but the pop up comes up every few videos.
