Not sure what’s going to happen with Vivaldi given that the browser is the ad blocker.

A proxied front end which works 10/10 , FOSS online and selfhostable, online with encryted server (SHA-384), very fast and lighweight, even more in Light Mode for PC with few resources. The best front end i've seen, nice UI without ads or other crap.

No ads, nor blockings or nasty popups in YT with the inbuild ad/trackerblocker of Vivaldi, but in FF with uBO and also in Vivaldi if i use uBO instead of the inbuild blocker, not so using Adblock Plus, which is somewhat strange.

The filterlists i use in the Vivaldi adblocker are

Only extensions (related to privacy) i use are JShelter and SiteBleacher (fingerprints/scripts and sitedata, good complements to any adblocker)

I had it pretty bad for several days, having to purge the cache several times but I saw no pop-ups yesterday or the day before that. Hoping that's still the case today

I started using freetube on my computer to play around with and while it's definitely still a work in progress in some senses, it does provide a neat experience.

Firefox invidious redirect add on is where it’s at

YouTube revanced still working for me...

Anyone have a good ad blocker that works with iPad?

I'm using Vivaldi with trackers and ad blocking as default with ublock origin but when yt blocked the player from playing videos, i tried disabling ublock just for yt and switched vivaldi's blocking from ads and trackers to just trackers and havent seen any ad or that popup ever since, not sure why

~~I last updated my uBlock yesterday and I haven't seen a popup since, I might be lucky or maybe Google has backed off for now.~~

edit: nevermind just got another one

Is there something I am missing? I am using uBlock Origin on Firefox and Youtube works the same as always.
