Windows Phone gets revenge on YouTube from the grave by helping users bypass its ad-blocker-blocker::Windows Phone to the rescue. A lot of YouTube users want to know how to get around the new annoying YouTube pop-up telling viewers to disable their ad-blocker.
I don’t know what voodoo magic I’ve pulled. But I’m still not getting pestered by YouTube to turn off ad block and I’m still watching 5 - 10 videos a day. FF w/ uBlock Origin and piHole
Probably just A/B testing.
Possibly. Does seem a little long for that being they’ve been doing this for a couple weeks at least. Maybe I should try it on some of my other devices / computers.
It isn’t rolled out to everybody at once.
I had those warnings and they stopped for me 2 days ago
Sadly, I am getting the warning even whitelisting YouTube on Ghostry. I have to turn off Ghostry altogether to do away with the warning.
FF w/uBlock Origin and + PiHole = No YouTube disable adblocking pestering here also…
Same here, I have YT watch history turned off and have ads blocked through Brave (I know I know, I’m trying to find a better browser) and haven’t seen anything at all yet, on my pc or phone.
And Google updating this old code in 3, 2, 1
Try grayjay… it’s an AWESOME new app, open source, and supports all video networks you can think of as plugins.
It’s available on: grayjay.app
Is it better than ReVanced?
Try it out and decide for yourself.
#TeamLouisRossmann and #TeamFUTO represent!
I just use NewPipe. Screw Google & YT.
Just use noscript

I’m using brave and still get the popups but not on Firefox. (Using both with ublock origin, sponsor block.)
Chromium. No thanks

Have you tried paying for it?
No, steal from them as much as possible. Stealing from corporations is morally good.
You are stealing from creators, collateral damage I guess 🤷♂️
If you’re worried about creators, support them via their patreons or what means they determine. They aren’t making much directly from YouTube, and their support streams are more certain that way.
I think the YouTube copyright and claim system will take care of that more than a couple thousand viewers can.
I will never ever pay for youtube and I’ll never stop blocking ads. Theres always a way, and if the day comes where ad blockers actually become iniffective then thats it for me, I’ll find somewhere else. I’m already a reddit refugee since they blocked 3rd party aps and charge a subscription fee, I can’t figure out a workaround yet so I dropped reddit altogether.
Sure, just throw money at the corpos, but please don’t act surprised when they suddenly double the premium fee, or when they start sneaking in ads for premium users. That’s the problem with corpo greed, it just never ends, and the moment you give in to it, you lose.
Why should I pay some extortionate fee each month on Google’s monopoly? Even if I do that they’re still hoovering up all the data they can get from me.
U-block Origin on desktop, revanced/newpipe for mobile.
IMO the money is much better spent on directly supporting content creators rather than padding the coffers of a 1.75 trillion dollar anti-competitive, monopolistic, tax-dodging, privacy-destroying company like Google.
Exactly, I whack out almost GBP 20 per month to content creators I like.
Spend the money where it will make a difference!
Remember when streaming services boasted about ad free viewing, only to then Continue to charge you AND serve ads to you WHILE collecting and selling your personal information? These companies can smd.
