Plus you should add Anti-adblock killer by Reek, a combination of those 2 makes the entire problem go away… for now. I would also whitelist youtube in other addons like disconnect as those can also trigger youtubes immune response.
Read the thread thoroughly, you may have missed a step or 2, or may have misunderstood something. There’s a lot of noise in the replies. Filter maintainers can’t always give support or keep up with the noise. Being pushy, unfriendly, or replying to the thread without doing every step will not fix the problem for you. If you have technical knowledge, consider contributing that knowledge.
Do not add random filters, scripts, extensions from random users. If you don’t understand what you’re doing you may add something that may work against you instead of for you, or in worse cases add something malicious.
YouTube seems to update their anti-ab script at least twice a day more or less. So just: Click 🛡️ uBO’s icon > the ⚙ Dashboard button > the Filter lists pane > the 🕘 clock icon at the end of the uBlock filters – Quick fixes list > the 🔃 Update now button. Do NOT click purge all caches and update now, that will only add more pressure to the filter hosts.
If there’s a mismatch between the filter fixes and YouTube’s latest fixes, just wait, watch the video logged out, or use an alternative front-end like piped, invidious, or whatever.
Eh, I’m not a huge fan of fixing deep societal issues with quick lazy rebranding of words either, but I do admit that AllowList / BlockList is much clearer in intent than Whitelist / Blacklist is.
GreenList and RedList might also work, but I agree there’s nothing more clear to what you’re blocking or allowing than a BlockList and AllowList. As clunky as it sounds at first.
This news is so fscking old. Why do we keep seeing it repeating here?
YT . Block antiblock. its all out intrusive. Stop using, next post.
Stop fscking reposting this shit that is literally 2 months old. Just because you “only just saw it” doesnt mean your 2 second GOOGLE would have told you everyone else knows ffs, and its been rolled out.
Brave luckily do not have those problems.
Edit: to be more precise, yesterday this appeared, and then recordings stopped, but only with a refreshing returned to normal, today this did not appear and the recordings work normaly.
I just clear the YT sites’ cookies, relog in and it disappears. I use AdNauseam and uBlock Origin and still got this.
If they weren’t so intrusive with the garbage ads (I hate publicity, over 95% of it is condescending and/or lies), I wouldn’t mind seeing an ad in the beggining, or even also an additional in the middle of a long video, but getting two unskippable ads in the beggining and one every 5 mins or less is abusive. So fuck you Google.
Going to install a local instance of Piped or Invidious.
My family watches several Youtube channels on the main HTPC. It had Chrome for them to use, as that is what the kids and my wife are familiar with from school/ work. Then this BS started. I use Firefox on my personal PC and have yet to have a problem.
So I dumped Chrome off of the HTPC.
It would be amusing if Chrome lost a ton of market share to Firefox and other browsers.
Yeah same. Idk why I’ve got ublock setup, tried resetting the filter cache, reinstalled unlock (idk if that helps but had to try) and I still get these.

what idiots watch Youtube whilst being logged in?
Sharing this: don’t know why this works, but my dad found refreshing the cache in UBlock makes this thing finally shut the fuck up.

That thing is unmaintained and have not been updated for over 7 years. It will do absolutely nothing.
If you have issues with YouTube: https://old.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/about/sticky?num=2
I have to add some things though:
Wow I didnt know it was unmaintained, I see that now. Well something I did actually worked because Im currently not getting any warnings from youtube
This happened to me, I just pressed F5 and just watching
Am getting the all ads(but skipable) on brave too
Am I the only one who thinks “Allowlisted” is a seriously stupid term? Why, pray tell, can’t we use name of a colour anymore?
And no, I won’t Caucasianlist YouTube, ever.

My freetube is working just fine. I wonder what would happen to invidious.
Insidious works fine, no change, I just installed it yesterday. Only downside is the max 1080p quality.
They’re maybe letting it slide bcs not too many people use it
Fuck You, Tube

For now I didn’t see anything on Firefox and Librewolf, but who knows how long that can go on. I guess I have to just wait and see.
…and get used to Invidious in the meanwhile.
I wrote a basic script with chatgpt which downloads the latest videos from a list of channels kept in a text files, straight to jellyfin.
Still testing, but seems to be working fine so far.
The day youtube blocks adblock for me they will be removed from my bookmarks to never return.
But we’l see if it actually happens because while Netflix has been nagging. I have continued to be able to share an account so far.

Revanced still works, not using it is just silly.
