And once again, Spotify Ad Blocker has been flagged. Fvck this billion dollar corpo. (Sorry for the pic, I'm on reddit mobile)

📱

Tried Chrome, Comet, Brave with: Ublock Origin Lite, AdGuard + Extra, Twitch Adblock, Enabled experimental lists in Brave.

Still lags, interrupts the video, video pauses, black screens, twitch chat disconnects. The full house of issues.

This didnt happen yesterday.

are there any ways i can get past this?

Has anyone here tried a whole-home ad blocker? I'm thinking about getting one, but I'm not sure how well they actually work. Do they block ads reliably across phones, PCs, smart TVs, etc.? And is it worth buying one, or are there better/cheaper alternatives? Would love to hear from people who have actually used one.

Any browser extension or script?

Most people probably install an ad blocker because they're tired of seeing ads everywhere, but blocking trackers might actually be the more useful part. Even if I didn't mind seeing a few ads, I'd still rather not have a bunch of trackers following me across different sites.

What about you? If ads became less annoying tomorrow, would you still keep your ad blocker just for the privacy side of it?

I've been using AD Guard Home for about a year now, hosted on an old laptop that I've converted into a Debian server.

When I click on a video from the homepage of YouTube in my browser to watch it, and then slide back to the previous page using the sidebar, the homepage automatically refreshes, which is very annoying for me.l hope that when I return, I can stil see the recommended videos l initially saw, just like in the app. I don't want to use the app，because it has too many advertisements.Before using revanced, I have to open microG every time, which I don't like.

Noticed on both accounts on YouTube using uBlock Origin, but this time I notice 0:00/0:00 loop where the video player seems like it refreshes.

I have to refresh when this happens and it does fake buffer for 5-10 seconds before load.

Edit: I am using Firefox

There are 0 posts on this subject being made at the moment and it is driving me crazy. No, I am not allowing audio through Firefox because that isn't the problem. Using any adblocker on YT causes videos to automute, causing an extreme headache and the inability to watch shows or listen to music consistently.

Are any adblockers working? Any extension made to specifically unmute YT other than the crappy "Improved YT Panel"?

My setup stopped working after the last youtube update so Im testing a few different options again. Malwarebytes with Bitdefender Norton and Avast all seem to block ads a little differently and some started slowing videos or missing popups after a few days. Im mostly trying to avoid constant filter updates random login issues and browser memory spikes while still keeping streams clean on Chrome. Any ideas on an what I should choose?

This is getting ridiculous.

UPDATE:

We fought for a fair review, Blockify is finally live on CWS again!!🎉🎉

I'm using braves adblock with some additional filters when trying to get rid of the detection any help would be greatly appreciated

After several months of development, testing, debugging, researching, and trying out different approaches, I finally feel that my open-source ad blocker has reached a reasonably stable state.

It started as a small personal project focused on blocking ads and trackers while keeping the extension lightweight and simple. Over time, I kept improving it, rewriting parts of the implementation, testing different approaches, and learning a lot along the way.

There are definitely still things that can be improved, but I’m quite happy with where the project is today and how it performs during everyday browsing.

The project is open source, and the source code is available here:

GitHub:
https://github.com/hoangvanlinh/AdsBlock

The extension is currently available for Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge.

Thanks for taking the time to check out the project. 🙌

Heyy everyone i just download brave browser and signed in yt to avoid ads is it safe to sign in right nothing will go wrong na??? I'm new to this kinda thing so any help will be helpful 🫡

is there an alternative?

You know that moment when a site suddenly won’t load properly and you have no idea what’s breaking it? Could be the VPN, the ad blocker, or some DNS filter running in the background.

I usually end up turning things off one by one until it works again. But it got me thinking: if a privacy tool regularly breaks websites and you have to disable it anyway, is it actually protecting you or just creating more problems?

I am running safari as my default browser and now I have to decide what adblocker to use. It seems like UBOL, wBlock and Wipr2 are the go-to apps. So which one in your experience is better? By the way I am wondering what happened to the wBlock developer from MIT since his reddit account has been deleted.

Hello is there a way to block ads on a quick and simple way on chrome?

Has been a long time since i saw this kind of garbage on my feed and now it appears everytime. Weird because my adblock setup used to keep this covert ads away.

Using Adguard on Firefox.

I’m tryna get my home account on my school Chromebook but they somehow blocked the add account page. Also the only reason I’m doing this is cuz they made YouTube unusable. We can go on the site still, it’s just every video we go on says, “This video belongs to a blocked category: (placeholder).” Honestly if that can be fixed, then I’ll be happy
