i use ublock origin

reddit still good for something: Filter Lists–>uBlock filters–>uncheck the “ublock filters - quickfixes” box and then reload the page.

this worked for me

Yup, I use ublock origin and have never had issues on YT.

They do random testing. I’ve received one of these a couple of times with unlock as well. Google/yt has not fully committed.

I hope they don’t commit. But if they do, I guess that’ll be the end of YT for me…

Awesome.

The day FireFox and UBlock Origin stop working with eachother completely. Might be the day I just uninstall all of my browsers and use my PC more personally than before.

I didn’t screencap it but today on YT I was given a modal that said I was using an adblocker (ublock) and I have three more videos before they require premium. I changed VPN locations and stopped getting the message.

Only one of my three computers was having this problem, but this solution worked for me as well. Thanks for sharing it here!

Fuck reddit, this solution did not work for me. All YouTube videos stop buffering after 59 seconds. Only fixes i have found is with either making a custom userscript or disabling ublock from working on YouTube by whitelisting the entire domain.

Or you could download freetube and be done with it

Huh, I was able to just close the pop-up and play the video as normal.

I find the adblock yt prompt only shows now when I try to open two tabs of YouTube. Second tab has this message but the first plays fine. I think ublock probably deployed a half fix already
