Ublock dashboard, filter lists, purge cache and update. Should work

[-] Tsunami45chan@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Ok I should try doing this.

[-] MonitorZero@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I'm back this worked! Thank you!

[-] MonitorZero@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Commenting on this so I can try it tomorrow

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 46 points 1 year ago

[-] Lenny@lemmy.zip 34 points 1 year ago

Commenting to save for later

/me Sad no save KBin noises

[-] loki@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

kbin seems like a great idea but the execution is meh. There are so many unnecessary things going on but simple things like collapsible comments and bookmarks are missing. You have to go to a post to view the links being posted. The interface also leaves a 2000s forum design vibes, with the random threads, users, communities in the sidebar. That's just wasting resources. Microblogs are included from mastodon, but if you want to microblog from with, they become threads.

Lemmy has come a long way, however kbin doesn't seem like it's changing all that much. I know it's still in beta, so I keep an eye out. Hopefully, it'll be more customizable in the future.

watched a free movie on yt for the first time in a couple months last thursday. i knew about the new war on adblockers, so i had updated ublock origin's filter list cache first.

worked fine no ads, even got 1080p, which i rarely ever see for the 'legit' mainstream tv shows and movies they have.

[-] Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

even got 1080p

What's up with that by the way? I constantly watch videos in 720p that advertise 4K in the title.

[-] winkerjadams@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I think they will offer higher bitrates if you use chrome instead of firefox

Purge your filters and redownload. It's a problem on your end.

[-] CaptainStrider@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Works like a charm.

[-] Tetra@kbin.social 18 points 1 year ago

Still working for me. The second it stops I'm out of there.

[-] tree@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 year ago

I installed freetube in preparation of this, haven't used youtube itself all week either freetube or invidious and both work well for now, would recommend both if you're open to them

[-] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

I've been doing the same! Freetube works quite well

Go to "Filter Lists" and Purge All Caches. That may help.

[-] flango@lemmy.eco.br 6 points 1 year ago

I did that and it worked! Thank you!!!

Mine is working fine but Sabine Hossenfelder made a pro-capitalism video that ignores the deterioration of the global market in the 20th century. Can someone send her a bugfix?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

Sir this a is a community about firefox

I'm using these. YouTube still works, but I haven't used the 'Home' tab since the nag screen about turning watch history on. I won't. My subs still work fine. I'm in the process of manually building my list in https://freetubeapp.io/ (can't get the import to work)

[-] BitPirate@feddit.de 24 points 1 year ago

I'd ditch AdBlock Plus. uBlock origin is better in every regard and there's no acceptable ads bullshit:

[-] ChiefGhost295@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago

I would also remove DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials. It is redundant if you are using uBlock Origin.

[-] sharkfucker420@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago
[-] Jayb151@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Does it have a function to import your current subscriptions?

I use Librewolf (Firefox fork with enabled protections against trackers and spyware) with uBlock origin. And I had no issues so far with youtube.

P.S. Also, couldn't remember the last time I saw "please turn off adblock" nagging on random websites... or an ad...

[-] ByGourou@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Holy shit you scared me, everything works for me on librewolf

[-] Vingst@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

I've had a few times where ads somehow appear with audio but no video.

[-] regalia@literature.cafe 6 points 1 year ago

Still working for me. Only change I noticed is that the edges of the video player are rounded now.

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

How's it with you guys ?

Still working for me

Still works for me on mobile and desktop.

[-] arefx@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Stopped working yesterday now I just find what I want to watch and watch it on piped. It's a little more annoying but less annoying than the endless ads every few minutes

[-] flango@lemmy.eco.br 8 points 1 year ago

Purging the filters of uBlock worked for me, maybe it'll help you too. But I was using piped too.

Still working for me. I'm wondering if it's a staggered rollout on YouTube's end. Have you had any luck in getting this working again?

[-] _jeff@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

Had the same problem with my Firefox and uBlock Origin install. Had to purge and update the filter lists in uBlock Origin and after that Youtube was working again.

[-] WoofWoof91@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

still fine so far for me
wonder how long that's going to last

[-] glacier@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Works fine on desktop here, on mobile I just use Newpipe

[-] marv99@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

Same for me with uBlock Origin, until I have updated to version 1.51.0

[-] PenguinJuice@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It should be illegal to interfere with a user experience outside of delivering it to them.

Samet thing happened to me thsn got fixed by itself, I switched to piped tho in case they win the war on adblock

[-] Ineocla@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Carefull tho piped is getting blocked by youtube

[-] edoorklep@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Same, a few weeks ago already. Switched to freetube back then.

[-] mah@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

How's it with you guys ?

For me as well. But then I purged the cache and updated ublock filters. And now it's working again.

It's a race between youtube and ublock, and ublock is winning.

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Gorhill is great, and they don't even accept donations for uBO

[-] ares35@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

the filter list maintainers and debuggers deserve the big shout out here.

my uBo code is a bit dated (don't update addons automatically) but has updated filter lists and works fine so far.
