Adblock plus takes money to whitelist ads, do not give them single cent.
Get F-Droid, and go use NewPipe. Export your subscriptions from YouTube and load them into NewPipe. Problem solved.
AdGuard on iPhone was the best purchase I ever made. Combined with baking soda and vinegar - perfect
The dad is correct here; AdBlock Plus is corporatized, and uBlock Origin is the better option hands-down in every capacity.
I remember when ABP started whitelisting ads as part of some twisted business model. I switched to uBlock so fast and haven’t looked back.
This is an ad in itself. Hilarious.
Is this you Ji…Ji…Jimmeh?
Is it tho if it’s pounting out ABP isn’t any good?
Ublock origin FTW
There is no such thing as bad publicity.
I’ve just started using AdNauseum, which I think builds off of uBlock Origin, but also silently clicks and hides ads instead of just the latter. So far it seems to work pretty well, although I did have to set some sites to strict blocking.
Does any ad blocker actually block YouTube ads? Origin doesn’t appear to be effective for me. Any advice is appreciated.
Which browser are you using? Firefox with ublock origin blocks every ad for me. I havent seen one on youtube in years.
If u are using chrome, then that is the issue.
uBO effectively blocks every ad that can be blocked. Youtube has started to insert the ads directly into the video stream and that’s not practically blockable.
Combining multiple ad blockers can interfere with ad blocking, though. Try creating a new, temporary profile with default settings and no addons, installing uBO, and see if it’s still broken.
it’s still practical to block them, twitch has adblockers and uses the same mechanics, if there’s a client rendered element(such as a pop up box that can be clicked) it’s detectable and therefor skippable or at the very least hidable.

Origin blocks ads for me on FF. Depending on the video you’re watching, know that YouTube is now hard coding ads into its video which nothing so far can block (as far as i know)
I know youtube has been selective about rollouts, but I use uBlock, sponsor block, and ABP in chrome and have had zero issues.
Depends on the type of ad. The new ones that YouTube injects into the video stream would not be blockable. Everything else is blocked just fine.
Unfortunately security at work just shut down all use of Firefox, and I was using YouTube enhancer. Forced to using Edge now.
Non work FF4lyfe and no issue, but I’ve always had to use more than just ublock origin.
