Figured I’d make a dedicated post this time instead of leaving it in a comment.
If more details are needed, please leave a comment and tell me.

Removing this one did initially seem to work yesterday, but today it isn’t.

Removing this did not work, but this extension has caused adblocker-blockers to yell at me before.

Youtube keeps updating their anti adblock so ublock keeps having to update, it’s a silly arms race.
The strange thing is that I’ve never seen any kind of AdBlock notice/warning on YouTube, ever. I’m also using uBlock Origin.
I’ve been lucky or my extensions/network have kept me from seeing any notices.
Alphabet (Google) through yt does block IP, refresh or change fixes it.
You may want to enable other filters for uBlock as the defaults are neant to keeep it all functional!
I assume it’s uBlock Origin. I have that and another one that I can’t remember the name of, but it ‘clicks ads’ and you don’t see them. I disabled uBO and left the other running. Worked fine for a few videos Sunday but Monday it was throwing the ‘you can’t use an ad blocker’ again.
But I’d wager just about anything that affects YT on your end will throw that message at this point since they desperately want people to pay for premium or watch 3min of ads per 5min video.
AdNauseam, rly great tool for fighting invasive ads (since it doesn’t click on “do not track”/privacy respecting banners)
For me it’s multi account containers.
