      My ad-blocker stopped working 3 days ago, but it only stopped working for Youtube. I use the latest version and the ad-blocker is on.

            @ryxslow I think most of us know about other adblockers, the real fix would be Opera updating the browser. Using another adblock on a browser which has "built-in adblocker" as one of its main selling points is less a fix and more a workaround sadly

                      Just noticed that the built-in adblocker is no longer working on youtube pre-roll video ads. This wasn't the case a few hours ago.

                        Opera adblock doesnt block video ads on youtube. When i check on the adblock it says it blocked ads but it actually doesnt.

                            I think this Opera needs to patch this one, so that this ad is no more. it's annoying.

                              try updating your lists at opera://settings/adBlockerLists
                              if that doesn't work you can try using uBlock Origin

                                Left is Original Opera. Right is Opera GX(older version AB).
                                Problem solved. I use original Opera to allday using, and if i want see GX corner,
                                i turn on Opera GX.

                                  Before the issue whenever I opened a youtube video it wouldn't show an ad but have a skip ad button immediately. Now Its like I have no adblocker. I tried disabling it and re-enabling it but it still doesn't work.

                                        @panda279tv There are still ads but you could just skip them instantly.

                                            When I open up a video, I get ads normally like I would as if there was no ad blocker at all. How can I resolve this?
