YouLibtard is ok for videos I can’t find elsewhere. Other than that, I don’t waste my time

Fuck those commies. I've got everything for google/alphabet turned off (maps, watch history, location etc...) on all devices.
yeah, and you can't play it in the background on a different tab, it stops, assholes.
I use adguard and have been using it for a year. Havent seen one ad! I dont use a youtube account (just bookmark the page), and i am on mobile.
I'm guessing the people having these issues are using the YT app on whichever platform.
I'm getting it on my laptop
There are many ad blocking add-ons. YT is trying to phase them out, but hasn't yet. On mine, I get a pop up at the beginning of the video to allow ads. I close it and continue, and ads are automatically skipped for me. This started somewhere around a couple of weeks ago. I use uBlock Orgin and Sponsorblock with Firefox. AdBlock Plus stopped working a while ago.

Chrome has both of the extensions I use with FF. UBO blocks YT ads, and SB blocks most ads that are put into the video itself.
Never had issues with Firefox. I've been using it for 20 years now. Fuck me I'm getting old.
Ublock Origin for set it and forget it. Umatrix for total control. Everyone was tricked into using Chrome. Still blows my mind.
I've noticed when I'm on VPN that YouTube will limit how many videos I can watch. It will work fine and then suddenly everything will begin showing "video unavailable".
I assume because they cannot directly tie the connection to a known user and the session cannot feed their analytics with the data they want.

Same, not sure how to do that. At least the ads on the youtube app on roku is easy to skip.
