Edit: I move to rumble.

YouTube is about to block me from watching videos, because they think that I “abuse” adblocker, but they can’t think that they have been abusing their torturing ads non sense toward viewers on daily basis. So anyone knows how to get around this? Or maybe I should just go to rumble completely?

Edit:
Youtube blocked me from watching videos. Forget this. I’m moving to Rumble. I want to watch videos with my account signed in. I’m tired of logging in and out, and I can’t make any comment without my account. Bye bye youtube!

I wish I can get paid for watching ads. I won’t be really watching them tho. I’ll leave it playing all day as i passively make money.

At least for me, on fire fox I only get the popup once if I open a video and then continue/ make new tabs from that one

I dunno, their blocker doesn't work on me. But my friend can't watch youtube anymore.

The "you can't watch videos with adblockers >=( " is tied directly to your account and they can't do anything about you using adblock if you log out.

TL;DR Use Invidious to watch YouTube videos, and when that stops working, just quit the platform entirely. Or quit now.

Because I already posted it:

If you prefer to do things differently, yt-dlp[github.com] is your friend. I personally use mpv media player which uses that plugin to watch videos.

When that is no longer an option, look into using other video platforms like PeerTube, Odysee, etc.

YouTube is dead.

Yea I might have to do that when they block me, but I mainly use my account to watch videos, because I like recommended videos, they filter out videos that I don’t care or like, and I like to make comments too. Thanks.

It's simple, they want you to pay for it. If you pay premium they remove the ads

Yes, I will try those out, yes, I agree, YT is dead. I wish that that guy, whoever that is, he created YT, he never should have sold YT away to google, in 2009 or so.

Easy, stop supporting YouTube. Switch to Bitchute, Rumble, or Odysee, etc.

Bitchute is to extreme for me.

Last time I was there it was all conspiracy and redpill videos.

Avoid those videos then, follow creators that don't discuss politics. As an example, *kliksphilip, gaming channel, mirrors YouTube videos to LBRY (Odysee), and so do "Linux YouTubers" and many other tech channels, for example. Probably the same on BitChute.

I have yet to see any anti adblock messages.

Of course, I don't have a google account and actually block google and youtube from setting any cookies.

And use yt-dlg for anything age gated.

How do you block setting cookies? Cookies are even required for its functioning properly are they not?
