> This has been continuing for the past couple months. I don't see youtube giving up tbh, and i don't see how uBO can continue to maintain a manually constructed filter every time a new mechanism is added/altered in youtube.
If UBO stops working, I'll use newpipe, if that stops working I'll use yt-dlp and if that stops working I'll use whatever else people have come up with, and if nobody has anything that gets rid of the ads I'll just stop watching youtube.
I don't see that happening though. As long as we have computers that still work for us, I doubt google will come up with a way to stop ad blocking entirely. Maybe we'll have youtube re-release groups that manually edit out the ads and re-upload videos from popular channels to P2P sites. Maybe we'll get AI that can download videos and edit out the ads for us. We'll figure something out.
