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

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.

uBlock Origin is working and it's the best adblocker, all the others are irrelevant.

Can anyone explain me whi I'm seeing ads in youtube? I've checked my ads blocking settings and everything seems to be okay there.

Hello, I had a problem not so long ago.
Initially, there was no advertising completely, after a while there was just a white canvas. But just yesterday, the ad started working completely. I tried using a different blocker. But nothing helps. I would really like to know how to get rid of this.
