      Hello. This Morning around 11 AM (EST) ad blocker just stopped working for youtube. Idk if youtube is using anti ad blocker tech or its a bug, but I would like it if this was fixed.

      Have a Nice Day-
      SOVKER

        I just downloaded Opera GX for a review and I noticed that youtube addblocker works sort of? Like if you give it 20ish seconds it will autoplay the video. However Opera GX's addblocker is nowhere near as efficient as chrome extension addblocker where video's play almost instantly (within 5 seconds).

            The adblocker for youtube isn't working anymore. This is what it shows.

              Just delete the crappy world first gaming ad block that comes with opera and get ABP. Works like a charm.

                I think YouTube has changed something, and now several ad-blockers are not working.

                  Why this appears when I do have AdBlock activated?

                      I recommend you guys to install AdBlocker from Chrome and then you will no longer see those annoying ads

                        The Opera has been updated, but the problem with blocking ads on YouTube is still not fixed, how long can we wait? We have been waiting all summer and autumn month, why can't you fix it and return it as before?

                          It looks like Google outsmarted AdBlock, so a solution I found is only patience. At the start of any video, you will see " An error ocurred" screen. You need to wait for 5 seconds, and the video will resume immediately. So, try this until Opera has a soluti

                            No, I just don't understand that they can't fix it for so long, although there was no problem before

                              @LIMBOH Yes, it needs to be fixed, and I have seen numerous posts about this problem on various forums. Let see when they are going to fix it.

                                Can you tell us how long to wait for the ad blocker fix, which we can't wait for more than 4 months, so there are also two ads per video?

                                  For more than 4 months now, we have been waiting for the ad blocker to be redone. But now it has gotten an even worse turnover: now there are two ads on YouTube.com with a white screen and a "Skip ads" button, and in some sites you go in like you see no ads (for example, Mail.ru) and as soon as you go to another mail or a profile of how the ad appears. I am asking you to fix Opera ad blocker because it does not work correctly.

                                      YouTube is still showing its ads, even after restarting the browser and changing settings to default 😞

                                        Everytime I get an ad at the start of a video, it doesn't hide it, it just gives me a white screen.
                                        Is there any fix to this?
