Are any of these (firefox) extensions causing the 'Adblockers are not allowed on Youtube' message for you guys?

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.

ClearURLsDisabling this extension did not remove the popup, but here’s my settings anyways: https://i.imgur.com/CPbcuqV.pngLink

Return Youtube DislikeRemoving this one did initially seem to work yesterday, but today it isn’t. Link

DuckDuckGo Privacy EssentialsRemoving this did not work, but this extension has caused adblocker-blockers to yell at me before. Link

XYZinferno,

One a complete side note, that Wii Shop Channel Music extension is absolutely hilarious. I love it

I had two issues triggering the ad blocking warning. Mind that I’m running Firefox and Ublock origin.

The first was the setting to block ads on YouTube enhancer add on.

The second was a rule I created on Ublock origin to block the notification bell.

After clearing both, no more warnings. At least for now.

yoz,

Doing the lords work

iHUNTcriminals,

YouTube? No I don’t because it’s not the 70s and the rivers are drying up.

weedwhacking,

Adblocking on YouTube is an uphill battle, especially on mobile.

Sign up for a VPN trial, set it to a random country. I think I used Argentina or something. Sign up for YT premium, the prices will shock you. I pay ~2$ US a month for a family subscription.

Turn off your VPN, and enjoy YT premium on the cheap, in your native country.

Schlecknits,

At least on Android you have NewPipe, which is an easy to install alternative Frontend for YouTube, or YouTube ReVanced, which applies multiple Patches to the original YouTube-App in order to make it more useable, however sometime the patching process causes trouble.

I’m currently using Revanced and it still works like a charm and completly adfree.

weedwhacking,

2$ a month is honestly very worth be not having to deal with sideloading and any of that, and having it be Ad-free on all my devices including my Apple TV is very worth the price. Also I can share it with 9 people

Iamhangry,

I bought using turkey as the country and caught a year plan. Argentina for some reason stopped accepting my credit card.

merthyr1831,

Sure but I’m doing this out of spite at this point. I literally use Firefox as my youtube client because I can’t use ReVanced (patches required a rooted phone which would block my access to some banking apps)

SilentStorms,

You can use ReVanced unrooted. I patched my apk fine and don’t have a rooted phone.

Stephen304,

I’m unrooted and I use revanced manager to patch YT and didn’t notice anything about needing root. I use the change package name patch so I can have the official YouTube app installed side by side with the revanced version since Chromecasting only works for me in the official app.

merthyr1831,

ahhh the reason i can’t is because my youtube app is a split APK which does require rooting 🫠

SilentStorms,

You could grab a prepatched APK from somewhere trusted. Mobilism is generally fine

Stephen304,

Oh yeah that’s annoying, I just search for the version on apkpure or apkmirror and usually one of those will have a standard APK I can download and select for patching.

ComicalMayhem,

Double check the wiki. There’s a Revanced community on lemmy with an up to date version. I have Revanced YouTube and YT music on my unrooted phone and both work fine.

I’ve been changing my useragent to chrome when I get the adblock popup. I haven’t seen any popups while using a chrome user agent. Not sure if it works 100% of the time but I hope it helps!

Thorny_Insight,

YouTube updates their adblock detection script twice a day meaning you have to update the “quick fix” filter list twice a day aswell. There’s currently no permanent fix. It’s a cat and mouse game.

MonkderZweite,

Block 3rd-party frames and scripts and see no ads or popup. Videos still play. I’m surprised that the EU consent banner still works.

dunno, using libredirect to pass to freetube for the duration…

SnowBunting,

Just started using freetube as well. It’s working for now.

Renacles,

Ublock Origin is working well again, google keeps updating their script but it only takes a few hours to get a new fix.

Sethayy,

If there ever was a best time to donate to them its now

lemmeBe,

Agreed, but they don’t accept donations. However, they do ask those willing to donate to do so to the creators and maintainers of the filter lists.

IntentionallyAnon,

I keep getting the box with an x in the top right that takes 5 seconds to click

Renacles,

Go to ublock’s settings, purge the cache and update libraries. That should fix it.

IntentionallyAnon,

It was probably because one of my YT modders had Adblock enabled

DefinitelyNotAPenguin,

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.

DefinitelyNotAPenguin,

They've only just recently started rolling it out

TigrisMorte,

They are evidently doing trial areas and not all IP are affected.

Vincent,

It's linked to your account. If you view YouTube without logging in, you should have no issues. You can use the Multi-Account Containers extension to log in selectively per tab, if you need to.

Block element with ublock

DefinitelyNotAPenguin,

That doesn't really work, it ends up breaking and not letting you scroll the page.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

As in you can’t scroll the comments? That’s a feature.

Hovenko,
@Hovenko@iusearchlinux.fyi avatar

You need to block that element as well. There is like a greyish overlay. Right click on it (the whole screen will be marked.), block element. Then it should be working.

DefinitelyNotAPenguin,

I blocked the overlay too and could play the video and interact but couldn't scroll.

Lunachocken,

I literally press the full screen button and somehow it’s fine.

LocustOfControl,

I have Bitwarden, RES and uBlock Origin, plus Enhancer for Youtube.

My fix was

  1. disable “Block Ads” in Enhancer for Youtube
  2. add this to uBlock under “My Filters”:

<span style="color:#323232;">! from https://gadgetstouse.com/blog/2023/05/15/bypass-ad-blockers-not-allowed-on-youtube/
</span><span style="color:#323232;">youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, [])
</span><span style="color:#323232;">youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.hasAllowedInstreamAd, true)
</span>
Draghetta,

For me it’s multi account containers.

manapropos,

Fuck, I rely on this for gmail and whatsapp
