Kill Ads

[ruup]

Hi everyone, have you noticed that your ad blocker for Youtube is no longer working? It makes using it a real pain. Has anyone as of 27-5-25 found a way to blocke them. I use Opera Air and Vivaldi as my go-to browsers, I tried Firefox but that was unsucessful. Can anyone please point my in the right direction?

Firefox plus uBlockOrigin addon/extension.

In Windows 11 Microsoft Edge I have found uBlock Lite works well.

Thanks all for your replies. It will be interesting to see how long these last. I have now added Avast ,DuckDuckGo and Edge to my browser stable. Thanks again.

I second this, now that Chrome has dropped support for Ublock Origin due to manifest v2

Firefox works great, as long as you install uBlock Origin.

Don't bother with Chromium-based browsers.

Chromium is made by Google.
YouTube is also run by Google.
Guess why ad-blockers don't work in Chrome?

[nzoomed]

Yes, its becoming apparent that the use of adblockers is impacting google's ad revenue.
Using an adblock DNS is another option, but I find that pages load with lots of blank space as if the ads were still there.

I imagine they'd make more money off people who pay for youtube premium, than those who use adblockers.

They're not in danger of going bankrupt, they're just a typical greedy corporation.

I'll take them seriously when they do something about the pr0n-bot commenters on the platform, or the ads that link to malware etc.

Brave browser with Adblocker for You tube installed. Works good for me .
