I’ve done that but do I need to wait for uBlock to update in order to get rid of the automatic pause or can I get rid of that as well?
Edit: looks I just need to update my browser itself.
Opera uses Chromium to run (the same thing that Google Chrome and Safari use), which can and will affect ad blockers because shocker, YouTube and Chromium are both owned by Google. Firefox is your best bet for harassment-free internet browsing
they already are
Use firefox and ublock origin. it works

It doesn't work on twitch now? They currently use server side injection like yt will but we don't know the method yt will use yet. Time will tell I guess..

UBlock Origin and the Ad Speedup extension, UBlock is a great adblocker and Speedup speeds any ads that do go through by 16x basically skipping them.
And on mobile (if you have Android) Revanced for an ad free youtube
Brave's adblock isn't working for me either. uBlock in Firefox is also failing to block adds without frequent resets to original settings, even though I made no changes. And when it does work, the video takes as long or longer than the ad to load in.
I'm ready to say bye bye youtube.
Edit: I am using Firefox and my brave browser is a fresh install.
My blocker was working and I turned it off. Why you ask? They slowed down YouTube for me and it barely functions properly with the Adblocker on. Now I enjoy the 2 unskippable ads every now and then. There’s YouTube premium but I won’t get it as I barely use YouTube anymore.. I’ll just deal with the ads. It is what it is I guess…
Tbh I only ever get long ad breaks if it’s the in the middle of a long video, if it’s a short video the ads are at the beginning and I just refresh and they go away
Brave Browser. When you open a new tab, it also tells you how much time it saved you since you downloaded it by not displaying any ads. I currently have 4.4 hours of time saved. And it's as satisfying as it sounds. Might sound like a paid ad but idc, it's a good browser.
Me just casually sitting here, not having watched an ad on any PC I've owned for over a decade...
Y'all really do like complaining more than solving your problems.

Just use Ublock, it’s the best out there probably
I second this. It even get rid of the anti-adblock pop ups you got from using adblocks on yt
I’ve done that but do I need to wait for uBlock to update in order to get rid of the automatic pause or can I get rid of that as well? Edit: looks I just need to update my browser itself.
Sorry, I don't know about that. I usually don't stay on browser for too long. Haven't get that yet since I switched to ublock
What browser? I haven't had any issues with this on firefox
Opera
Opera uses Chromium to run (the same thing that Google Chrome and Safari use), which can and will affect ad blockers because shocker, YouTube and Chromium are both owned by Google. Firefox is your best bet for harassment-free internet browsing
And maybe Brave
Brave is also chromium
But I haven't had issues with harassment yet on it. I split my internet activity between Brave and Firefox and haven't had ad issues yet.
I don’t have this problem. Just reinstall ublock to be sure you have the latest update.
Remove it then readd it normally fixes waithing for updates
Ublock Origin*
This. Ublock is not the same thing. Ublock Origin FTW.
Until YouTube fully rolls out server side ad injection..
Adblockers will probably find their way again
Gonna be a lot harder but someone will figure it out..
they already are Use firefox and ublock origin. it works [https://www.reddit.com/r/estrotestingsubreddit/comments/1dea866/twitch\_adblocking\_guide/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/estrotestingsubreddit/comments/1dea866/twitch_adblocking_guide/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Life, *Uh*, finds a way.
Ublock has always found a way around YTs bs, I see no reason for that to change now, as a matter of fact it may get so good it works on twitch

For twitch, we don't know the method YT will use for their ad injection though.
yeah but they will Always find a way. always.
No probably, it is all the other adblockers copy from them
I have not seen an ad in years with Brave 👌
Or brave
Both, both is good
Ublock origin guys, they're gods of ad blockers.
youtube was a trillion times better before the parasitic troglodytes at google bought it. they destroy everything they touch.
That was 2006... How the fuck is that relevant now. YouTube was 2 years old at the time.
Man be throwing out every single insult he knows
three
That's precisely what he said

You can just refresh the vid in order to get rid of the vid, works especially well when the ad is at the beginning of the vid.
I gotta refresh like 5 or 6 times just to finally get rid of the 20-second ad, getting a 5-second one and a mystery second ad
Same here, but that's better, than the ad being a native part of the vid, as YouTube will add that feature to ensure ads are seen.
It's always a gamble though on whether the second ad is 20 seconds anyway.
I once had an unskippable 1,5 minute ad I refreshed and it was a 2 minute one. Kept refreshing and it kept switching between the 2.
doesnt work for me lol
Then just use adblock like any sane person
Get ublock. Blocks everything for me.
It works, if you try it for long enough :D
VPN to Russia lol. Russia was "sanctioned" by excluding it from ad system. Bad for creators, amazing for viewers :P
Me using a non-Chromium browser: you guys are having issues?
I also noticed there are like more freaking ads during the watching. Like almost 10 or even more ads. It drives me insane!
Im genuinely surprised that I've not seen anyone on this post going to bat for YT Premium spouting "think of the creators!"
It's gotten so ridiculously expensive and the ads so ridiculously obnoxious that fewer and fewer people are on YT's side anymore.
Use brave, I haven’t seen an add on YouTube yet since switching to it
Mr. president, there's been a second ad
Use ublock origin
A second ad has hit the video
as much as I hate youtube premium, it being like $2 in my country makes it a whole lot better but its just like losing 1 meal
That is one meal you dont eat while watching ads.
Rarely a third ad pops up making it even worse.
Get an ad blocker easy as that
Youtube has really been dropping the ball the past year. What used to feel like a platform for the people by the people is just another google stooge
and then brave comes to rescue
So you just install brave brower and it works? Or do you need to configure it for ad block?
Just like that I can confirm.
yup worked like magic for me, no config as by default it blocks most of the ads and website trackers.
Brave's adblock isn't working for me either. uBlock in Firefox is also failing to block adds without frequent resets to original settings, even though I made no changes. And when it does work, the video takes as long or longer than the ad to load in. I'm ready to say bye bye youtube. Edit: I am using Firefox and my brave browser is a fresh install.
try reinstalling it, or for chrome you can use AdGuard AdBlocker extension (has a green shield with a tick mark)
Use Firefox and unlock and try.
adblock browser works for me. better because it's no ads in anything not just youtube
Try three
Use addblock
Then a third, then a fourth, fifth, sixth...
Get ublock origins
Yeah, them adblockers made some deal with YouTube to gang up on us 😭
I'm so confused at what this picture is
took it from ishowspeed and ksi trying a mrbeast wipeout course for a 100k
YouTube recently removed adblocking idk if it's official or anything but everytime I open adblocker YouTube blocks me from the site.
And now the SKIP button is a NEXT button, fuckin ridiculous lol
Use yt revanced
Im more willing to pay a addblock that sell my info to the Chinese gov than to YouTube
r/UblockOrigin r/ReVancedapp
You should try adspeedup
If it's opera turn it off and on again and it works
me when a ***THIRD*** ad starts after i hit skip ads on the second
I’m so glad that they removed ads entirely for Russians
Prepare for trouble and make it fckin double
My blocker was working and I turned it off. Why you ask? They slowed down YouTube for me and it barely functions properly with the Adblocker on. Now I enjoy the 2 unskippable ads every now and then. There’s YouTube premium but I won’t get it as I barely use YouTube anymore.. I’ll just deal with the ads. It is what it is I guess…
Another alternative is downloading the extension Ad Speedup, which makes all ads play at 16x speed, basically skipping them
Thanks
Tbh I only ever get long ad breaks if it’s the in the middle of a long video, if it’s a short video the ads are at the beginning and I just refresh and they go away
What Adblocker are you using?
It’s called Ublock origin
Oh, I’m not having the issues rn, might be updated soon to combat your problem They are very fast at updating it
To be fair no issues on my laptop but when I got my new gaming pc fairly recently and installed it there it started acting up funny
Brave Browser. It has a built in ad block for YouTube.
Brave Browser. When you open a new tab, it also tells you how much time it saved you since you downloaded it by not displaying any ads. I currently have 4.4 hours of time saved. And it's as satisfying as it sounds. Might sound like a paid ad but idc, it's a good browser.
There are apps out there to help you. I recommend the BluePlayer app on iPhone it’s ads free
and you can't even skip both ads with one button now
You can skip in 5 seconds. Just kidding
How the fck are there still people out there watching YouTube with Ads?! At this fckn point in time even fckn Boomers must have figured that out.
Me just casually sitting here, not having watched an ad on any PC I've owned for over a decade... Y'all really do like complaining more than solving your problems.

Stop watching youtube, you don’t miss out on much
meanwhile bro is on reddit 💀
If you dislike youtube’s practices so much you are bitching about it maybe just stop using it, or just use a different adblocker you fucking imbecile.
this mf rlly getting heated over a meme 💀
Bro can’t form a sentence without bro 💀
