I don't need to, I don't see any popup, I can watch videos on YouTube just fine without changing anything in uBlock Origin's settings or manually updating it.

Do it anyway if you want that to continue. It's generally a good practice anyways since filter updates are pushed regularly with old redundant strings removed and new filters added, for all sites, not just YouTube.
