I feel bad, because when the adblocker is initially rendered ineffective I kinda go into a primal state. It doesn’t help that last time I wanted just to put on some brown noise to calm my head and I got a blaring ad instead.

Use this in the “my filters” section in ublock:

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false)
  
youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0)
 
youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, [])

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)

www.youtube.com##.opened

Occasionally you might not be able to scroll but that’s stopped for me now. When it does happen you can full screen a video and un-fullscreen and then it’ll be fine though.

still works for me, just update the ublock lists when it starts to fail, takes like 30 seconds

Still works for me on desktop, I’ve been having trouble with ads busting through Adaway on my android tv box though.

I’m using smarttube / smarttubenext on my android box. I get ads through my browsers but not on the tvbox.

I like pipepipe personally but my guests refuse to use anything but youtube and I get mad hearing ads.

Adguard has been working very well on my android phone, even better than Blokada… maybe try it out, because afaik you don’t even have to download anything, you just set it up in your DNS configuration (haven’t done it myself, but it seemed easy enough)

Breadtube if it didn’t suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It’s open submission unless there’s something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it’s currently in.
