@logius95 news from the new update:
now some ads (the minor part of them) are still able tu pop up at the beginning of the video, and all the time it happens until now, they are unskippable (like from 10 to 15 seconds more or less)... for the rest of them they appear for a split second and they are immediately skipped automatically... hopefully those minor problems will be fixed in the next update. -
LeonN last edited byWell, I was on youtube and the first video I clicked had ads, even with the adblocker turned on... Buged or still in development?

Hi,
I work on Easylist and Brave. The main issue here is the blocking done by Opera is basic network level blocking. For Opera to properly block Youtube ads, it'll need to support javascript snippets.

@logius95 Opera will do basic network blocking, so just domain and folder blocking level stuff.
For 80% sites this is fine. However there is complex methods done by websites of inserting ads/adchecks using javascript, which is supported by uBO, Brave, ABP etc. Which allows list authors to tailor javascript snippet rules to counter these, including youtube.

So a few months ago I found a solution for this problem....
If we can't use the already built in adblocker, then why don't we download another from the extensions tab??
I also have a problem for the extensions tab. When I revealed the link it said "US" at the end so I used a vpn to access the extensions tab and download an extension called "Install chrome extensions" Then I downloaded "ABP ad blocker"
And that's how I fixed the problem for me
Hope it worked for you.
