              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

                      A more detailed guide can be found here

                        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?

                                        I have my adblocker on (same with trackers) and ads are still showing up for no reason. These are your regular ads on videos, and I even restarted opera to see if it fixed it. (im using opera gx) So, what's the problem?

                                          Bug: Adblock isn't working again
                                          I was watching youtube for a bit earlier, but it seems that either the Opera built-in adblock just isn't working, or Youtube released an update that somehow bypassed adblockers.
                                          (Yes, I have adblock turned on, I'm not that dumb)

                                            @potionsidb Same here about Ads problem but you said it happened again (happened before)? Then I am wondering if it really is an opera bug or like some think adblock for YT is slowly failling? Not sure...

                                            P.S. I just install ublock and it works fine right now.
