    What makes me uoset is how you have to buffer a video each time you rewind it to maximize ads . Not a big deal but it’s data going to waste for no reason when I wanna spin a song that’s not on streaming

    i use uBlock and Adlbock and never see any ads

    i use adblockers too but a lot of sites don't let me use them anymore

    that's most news sites, most free no sign up streaming sites (like cable networks), yahoo mail, and some others. s*** sucks

    I never had any issue with uBlock Origin.
    It's easily the best adblocker in the game.

    Also if you're using the old Adblock Plus, at least check in the settings if you aren't allowing "respectable ads", cause they get paid to let them through the filter unless you disable this option.

    For skipping sponsored segments, there's an extension named SponsorBlock that does this exact thing.
    Since it's crowd-sourced, it won't work unless someone already submitted the info for the specific video you're watching.
    Never tried this one though as it's not really something that bothers me tbh

    Also if you have and Android phone, you can get both the ad-block and the sponsor-block if you install the newest version of the Vanced youtube app.

    Problem is only on PC, been using Vanced for a while now so thar's not a problem.

    Even uBlock has problems with whatever yiutube using right now

    Oook that's weird then

    Maybe you could use some additional filters from the available ones in the settings page of ublock origin

    Or you could try with a different browser. I know ublock has some additional features on Firefox for example

    Or you could even mention this on the ublock subreddit or on the github page, who knows maybe it's something they aren't aware of

    I exclusively watch YouTube so I don’t mind paying for Premium tbh

    if you know the exact URL of the video then search on archive.org/web and if someone saved a "snapshot" of the video you can view it. no guarantees though

    My adblocker stay strong not had any problems yet

  • Jan 24, 2021

    Also if you guys aren't on this wave already, get SponsorBlock for Youtube. Skips in video ads like the once you see for their useless VPNs and s***

    You don't have to give them money for a thing that was free and they made it to benefit them

    F*** em

    Well it's literally their business model and how they make money lol, it costs an insane amount to keep the site running and they're operating at a significant loss. This stuff isn't supposed to be 100% free lol
