With duckduckgo as my default browser, I don’t have a problem watching no ad videos.
Yet.

I’d rather refresh than watch ads

Guys, it’s over. Just get premium lite, its $8. Why put up with the abuse? Out of principle?
Life is too short to deal with ads, or ways to circumvent them.

Been noticing this myself for a week or so now. I don’t get an error but the page just never loads. Sometimes refreshing or accessing the mainpage from a search link seems to allow me through.

So an ad blocker will break youtube? Perfect!Â
Now I can get rid of that crap, thanks google.Â

They also removed the “sort by latest” option, wtf

So now I am forced to ditch Chrome where YouTube don’t work and use Firefox instead. Genius, Google.

I like how I’m a premium subscriber and I’m logged in on Chrome, yet when I click a video on my browser it opens in Chrome and there is an ad. I have to click go to YouTube to actually utilize my premium.

Id like youtube. I dont mind watching ads, I want it to be profitable and continue to exist. I watch on my phone since its easier to switch videos on mobile when Im gaming. But they have no fucking quality control. If I get another 10+ minute ad ill just install a web browser with ad blocker on my phone and watch there.

For Safari users here (don’t judge, i like it on my ipad) vinegar works wonders too. And lets you listen to videos without the screen on.

Adblock will prevail resistance is futile!

Use a VPN and spoof Albania. The entire Internet is nearly ad free.

Funny… As a Firefox+ Unlock origin user I have never seen any of these “error messages”.

Did they remove the theater option in mobile?Â

I whitelisted YouTube, but it still thinks I’m blocking ads because I have the extension installed, even though I’m not using it. I’m not about to get ads from every website just because YouTube doesn’t want me to use an ad blocker.

I can’t watch adds anymore, I do not have any acceptance of it.

I’m never going to watch ads on YouTube. I’ll research how to get around any counter measure they add.
I wonder how they’ll continue to make profits when the AI circle jerk has eliminated the jobs of the majority of tax playing humans… Where do these fart sniffing oligarchs see this trend going?
I wonder if robots like endless bullshit ads… will they even watch YouTube?

For me it’s now 50% scams and 50% sketchy dating site ads. That must be illegal.

Fun fact: If you’re in Myanmar there’s no ads in YouTube. VPNs are your friend.

Firefox (well, Waterfox) plus uBlock Origin plus no script remains undefeated

Goes without saying that people that use adblockers have absolutely no interest in seeing ads and if by some measure that ad finds its way back in their face the absolute last thing they will do is buy the product or service. Literally throwing money away by serving ads to people who are not interested.

Can we make a malware that poses as an ad, specifically to crash YouTube?

then why is it saying “this content isn’t available” and not “please disable your vpn”

Why did they take away sort by latest? Do they want to make me their enemy?

I pay for YouTube premium and still got the error messages

I don’t understand pay to avoid the ads or watch the ads, its the only reason why there is YouTube

How many things have I ever bought from a YouTube ad over my entire life? Zero. Because I hate the company and their product for interrupting my video.

meanwhile Ublock Origin works perfectly fine for me 😂

Basically, we just need everyone on the internet to stop watching Youtube. Their monetization is zero without watchers. And they are making watchers less safe.

YouTube isn’t worth a shit anymore, anyway…
Haven’t visited that site in years.
Fuck Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, Nvidia, Microslop, et. al…
Satire incoming…
