@kiquja Click on the UBO icon on the extension bar (assuming it is visible at the right top corner of the browser, then look for triple gear icon which is for settings. If the uBlock Origin icon is not visible then hold down the CTRL and SHIFT keys then press E on the keyboard. Then locate UBO on the extension list and then click on the Options under UBO. Go through the options under the "Settings" and the "Filters Lists" tabs.
Most importantly, keep uBlock Origin up to date. major browser update can break its auto update function especially is there is a major update to the browser and it is not compatible with the current version of uBO.
Another fact Opera users need to keep in mind is, unlike Brave or Firefox, most other mainstream browsers including Opera are using Chromium engine which no thanks to Google, has been slowly but surely getting pushed with Manifest V3 rules the last year so eventually uBO will not work right or at all with Chromium based browsers like Opera/Edge/Chrome/Vivaldi. What you need to do is, swap uBlock Origin with uBlock Origin Lite which is supported by Manifest V3. This version of uBlock is not quite as configurable or effective as the uBO but it will not likely to have any issues either.
My current primary browser is Brave and I am using uBlock Origin Lite and no issues on YouTube.

Youtube detects it now. Is there a way to fix this now or we have to wait for an update?

You don't really have a lot of choice but to wait, but if you want a more interesting project to eliminate YT ads I saw a post on the forum of OpenWrt, it is an open source router firmware based on Linux, they were looking to eliminate in the router so they never get to your device.
There appear to be several different solutions relying on 3rd party sites for code and testing.
