i'm useing uBlock since 2019 i can't say anything bad about it

This will really need an update, after Youtube's extreme decisions. I can't use the internet without it anymore, but unfortunately YouTube will do everything it can to force people to pay Premium even though it offers a quality of service that leaves something to be desired.

I would like to see Google strive in this way to improve its products instead of buying exclusive rights to platforms like iPhone and Android or force people to pay.

Hi Raymond, we can't wait for new update, since today YT showed us middle finger again.

"I again get the YouTube "Ad blockers violate YouTube's Terms of Service" message.
It needs an update of sorts."

I cleared history, cache, cookies of firefox browser. I started Youtube. I refused to agree to their new modified EULA. I deleted the cache of uBlock Origin + update.

And everything works again.

Good plugin needs update for youtube as of 12/6/23

Way better than "ad-block" or whatever that extension is. Charging for a premium version tipped me over the edge, I made the swap to ublock and holy is it good. Not only is it a adblocker, you can also add your own filters in. For example I blocked youtube shorts on desktop with it, and I also put in a community script that removes the artificial slowdown youtube gives you when using firefox

The best adblocker is town. Thanks for keeping the internet alive Raymond Hill.

You definitely have a front row in heaven for you!!
