Pretty much the subject line. uBO has successfully blocked the nag screen enough times that I can’t play anything at this point. No preview loads, and the play button serves no function. I’d really prefer not to have to find content on YT, copy the URL and use Piped/Invidious, but this ongoing escalation is steeling my resolve to screw Google.

    So… They’ve been A/B testing this the whole time and will continue to do so. Do you think OP is lying or could it be that you’re having the B variant until it flips for you too?

      OP most likely is not following the instructions laid out at the uBlock subreddit. Probably a conflict with another adblocker.

      OP didn’t say if they use Firefox. If they’re using Chrome, then I’d find this result rather unremarkable and unsurprising.

          Never had a single issue on FF. Make sure you open the UBO settings page, uncheck all the filter (basically set it to its default settings) the refresh.

              Did you purge and update your filters?

              Note: I’m not talking about turning filters off then back on, I’m talking about updating the version of each filter itself.

          Oof, well I don’t like the sound of this at all. Looks like my days of using YouTube might be numbered.

          If these sites keep enshittifying at this rapid pace, I may be forced to touch grass before my time is up
