youtube recommendations don’t only show videos from channels you’re subscribed to, adblock or not. but yeah I had no idea that they slipped in “sponsored” videos into the recs now, though I’m not at all surprised
now that I’m looking at my page I can see blank spaces in my recommendation grid, I guess those are all the ads I’m not seeing lol
I’m on FF and YouTube’s anti-adblock has made it basically impossible to use with uBlock, even leaving the adblock turned off I’m still hit with the anti-adblock message several times a day.
Here’s a uBlock filter I used for a long time that helped with that. It should still work. The caveat is that it broke certain features, like anything that opened a pseudo-popup (for lack of a better phrase), such as adding thing to a playlist, unsubscribe confirmations, the share popup, etc. Not sure how to make this all one single code block, so excuse the messy formatting.

ad blockers, people, I’m begging you
I was wondering why OP was subscribed to some AI watch repair/porn channel. I guess this is what ads look like, I honestly didn’t get it.

why would i not want to see such glorious slop on my screen?
Sadly I’m on chrome and ublock only does so much, I still get shit as seen here.
Stop using chrome

That shouldn’t happen, even on the main Firefox. Go to UBlock and update filter lists.
Yep, update filter lists, or reinstall extension. I use Firefox and I have had 0 anti-adblock problems.
really? I use floorp which is also basically firefox and I don’t have any issues with uBlock/YouTube
Using Ecosia and just switched to Floorp a few days ago and both did not give an issue with Ublock, Privact Badger and Decenteraleyes
