      Cannot watch YouTube on opera anymore it says I'm using an add blocker I've never used an add blocker before,its been a week of not being able to watch YouTube on opera ,if I sign out of my YouTube then it will work ,but as soon as I sign in then it says you are blocking adds its against terms and conditions
      Also if im logged in and I flip the toggle to mobile mode it will work but as soon as I put opera back to desktop it says im using add blocker. Deleting cookies dont help

            Since Opera on Android doesn't allow add-ons, install AdGuard.

                  @live1one Make sure that Opera adblocker is turned off.

                  And even it being disabled, some page may think that you are using an adblocker just because you are using Opera.

                        @live1one install AdGuard and the issue will be gone.

                        Also, don't use the desktop version.
