Lul I have uBlock origin and no ads for free
My ublock origin was having issues today and I had to scale back some of the stuff being blocked.
They must be making extra effort lately. I got the “Ad blockers are prohibited” popup twice today on two systems. One Linux and one windows. Librewolf, UO and SB on both.
Was able to close popup and move on.
Yup I think that's it. I got a "you have playback issues?" popup today. Also it takes longer to load.
Maybe YouTube will push me away, but for now it's too convenient.
Just use invidious or Newpipe if the adblock ever stops working
My uBlock Origin has been working fine on my Linux desktop running Firefox.
uBlock Origin Lite on my Chromebook, on the other hand, has gotten the "Ad blockers are prohibited" popup a couple of times.
Most of the time reloading the filters fixes uBlock Origin not working
time to open Freetube and paste the link
