    Yeah uBlock Origin has worked fine through every single one of these “adblockers are broken!” articles I’ve seen

    I don’t mind, it’s still good to raise awareness about Youtube’s bullshit - especially since I’m getting ads for Border Patrol, OpenAI, and the fucking Melania movie now when I do see them (when I am lazy and using my Roku TV instead of HDMI). But it hasn’t been a problem for me yet.

      Could just be because they address it rather fast.

      It could also be due to chrome limiting what uBlock can do.

      UBlock + Firefox seems like the ideal combo.

        I actually just realized I apparently disabled UBO for some reason on Youtube - can’t imagine why - and it was actually just Brave Browser blocking everything on its own.
