Twitch has gotten insufferable with ads lately. Sometimes I’m getting 3mins straight of ads.

To add insult to injury, twitch is buggy as hell and I often need to refresh and usually it loads new ads.

I used to have a special config in ublock specifically for twitch but that doesn’t seem to work anymore.

Any tips?

Weirdly ublock and firefox is enough for me to not see twitch ads. Friends of mine report seeing ads as well on twitch with the same config. I really don‘t know what it is since i don‘t have anything fancy like a pihole or similar

Maybe someone gifted you a sub and you didn’t notice. Happened to me.

sometimes it goes black instead of showing an ad for me. F5 solves it

I use uBlock but every now and then Twitch ads start slipping through, They normally go back to being blocked with the next uBlock update.

It’s a real cat and mouse game.

You could try Grayjay. I haven’t tried watching Twitch through it and that source is in beta, but the app is great overall

Ads get through on it, sadly.
