Water fox no longer blocking YouTube ads

Just did an update on Water fox and now YouTube seems to know I’m using adblockers and warns I can’t use until I remove them.

Are there any recommended extensions I can use?

uBlock Origin blocking 1 million ads on Kick?

uBlock Origin blocking 1 million ads on Kick?

Title says it all. I know, I know.. Kick is awful. However, I just happened to notice that the icon showed 1M and it piqued my interest. It doesn't seem to be slowing anything down or running weird but does that number mean it's currently blocking 1 million ads?

Allowlist broke after installing 2nd adblocker, remains broken even after keeping only 1

A few days ago, Fandom/wikia started somehow bypassing my adblocker (Adblock Pro) on my iphone. I downloaded AdGuard per the suggestion of another user, and it sadly did not change the situation with Fandom. I uninstalled AdGuard since I only need one adblocker, but now the allowlist on Adblock Pro is broken. This is a problem since my allowlist is for sites that hide the entire page if it detects an adblocker, like tv tropes. I assumed it was because I didn't turn off the AdGuard extensions on Safari before uninstalling, so I redownloaded AdGuard to turn the extensions off and then uninstalled AdGuard, but my allowlist is still broken. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Should I switch from Meta Ads to Google Ads for pre-owned iPhones? (South Africa)

Looking for some honest advice on whether I should switch to Google Ads or if the issue is deeper than the platform.

I run a pre-owned iPhone business in South Africa.

On Meta, things look good on paper:

Strong CTR, CPC, and overall engagement

Lots of add-to-carts and checkout initiations

Cheap traffic and solid reach

But conversions are the problem. I’ve spent around R14k total and only got about 6 sales across campaigns. Traffic comes in, people browse, but very few actually complete payment.

What I’m seeing in practice:

A lot of people are interested but don’t end up buying

Many can’t afford the device

A big portion fail BNPL approval

Others want long-term installment plans (12 months+)

It feels more like low purchasing power / low qualification than lack of demand

Business setup:

Competitive pricing for SA market

BNPL + cash options

Warranty, returns, reviews, trust signals, etc.

Limited stock (~15 devices rotating)

Main question: Would switching to Google Ads actually improve this by bringing in higher-intent buyers (people actively searching “buy iPhone 13” etc.), or is this mainly a conversion/affordability issue that will persist no matter the platform?

Would appreciate insights from anyone who’s run both in a similar space.

Youtube does not load videos when ad blockers are active

Like the title says, as the site loads it shows the videos etc. But once it finishes loading the vids, the site goes blank. However, when the ad blocks are off everything works fine

When ad blocks are active

When ad blocks are off

Using edge, windows 11 - issue noticed on 21st June

This only happens in the homepage, if you are quick enough - as soon as the thumbnail appears clicking on a video will show suggestions as normal

If quick enough, the videos load after the 'ad's duration', but everything else works normal

Edit: This issue does not happen in Incognito

Is there way to block Sponsored recommendations on youtube's main page?

Is there way to block Sponsored recommendations on youtube's main page?

I'm using uBlock with Firefox desktop and just today those started showing up. Every top left video on main page is always sponsored. Sometimes it's a regular ad, sometimes it's some bullshit video that I'd never be interested in watching.

Top left is full hour long sponsored movie, bottom right is an ad and I'd love to see them gone.

Unsure about privacy with ABP for Safari

Unsure about privacy with ABP for Safari

I can't be the only one who's slightly worried about this (see screenshot ⬇️). I don't question the developer's intentions, but the passwords and credit cards mention did make me question if it was a good idea to keep using this for browsing on Safari. Can anyone advise me on whether or not this is a good idea.

NymVPN <> Brave Adblocker

Built on Brave's open source engine, one of the most comprehensive and consistently maintained block lists in the industry, it works at the DNS level. That means it blocks ads, trackers and malicious domains across every app on your device, not just your browser. No extension required. Toggle it on and it works immediately.

This week Google announced it is disabling real adblockers in Chrome 149. The company that makes the vast majority of its revenue from advertising is removing the tool that blocks those ads from the browser used by 65% of the internet.

The timing is worth noting.

Well, Google are doing this thing of chasing away people from their ecosystem everyday. I get the point that they make money from ads. But I think they're doing too much forcing it on people, especially in a net where malvertising is somewhat a normal practice. What sense would it make for someone who can't properly browse the net because 60% of real time view is made up of ads, or even pop-ups consisting of fake cancels or no button being yes as well. Guess they care more about revenue that user experience these days smh.

Adblock forTwitch

Hi everyone, since the CS Major has been going on I wanted to watch some pros give their takes on the matches, so I openedtwitch. The amount of ads I got within a span of 10 minutes sent me on a mission to never watch ads again.

So I built an app for Windows (Linux, Android, and Android TV coming soon) that lets you watch streams completely ad free. I took inspiration from pixeltris's TAS repo and built on top of that idea, except this is a full native desktop client rather than a browser extension. It is free, open source, and all your data stays on your own device. The only time anything leaves is when you log in throughTwitch's own OAuth, so PureTV never sees your password or stores your credentials anywhere.

Repo: https://github.com/dhawal-ss/puretv

Would love feedback, and if anyone wants to contribute the Android and TV builds are already in the repo.

Enjoy and have fun gamers!

I Built a YouTube Timestamps Extension... and Accidentally Discovered It Can Help Skip Ads

I Built a YouTube Timestamps Extension... and Accidentally Discovered It Can Help Skip Ads

Hi guys, Just a quick note: English isn't my native language, so I used a translator to help with this post. Hopefully everything still makes sense.

If you watch long YouTube videos like lectures, podcasts, tutorials, or deep dives, you're probably familiar with timestamps. They're one of those simple features that make long videos much easier to navigate.

At the same time, you've probably noticed that getting to them isn't always very convenient.

It's not exactly a huge problem, obviously, nobody's losing sleep over having to click an extra button. But if you want to see the timestamps, you usually have to scroll down, click the tiny "Show more" button, expand the description, and only then can you access them.

It's just one extra click and a couple of seconds, no big deal, but it turns out there are plenty of people who absolutely hate unnecessary clicks. The kind of people who are obsessed with productivity, efficiency, and making interfaces as frictionless as possible. For them, even a small annoyance is enough reason to start looking for a better solution.

https://preview.redd.it/g59h7am21l6h1.png?width=1205&format=png&auto=webp&s=0a8a8ee7c5384bfc003ec11376fafc1db7823c24

I'm not quite that extreme myself, but honestly, if I can avoid an extra click, I'd rather avoid it. That's basically why I started building this extension. The idea was simple: display the timestamps automatically in a sidebar next to the video as soon as the page loads.

Like many side projects, it started as something I built for myself, after using it for a while, I figured other people might find it useful too, so I decided to release it publicly.

So what does Timestamps actually do?

https://preview.redd.it/2sqr5e8c2l6h1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=71fdbfcff8cf651ef40fd875512101c98c60baf5

When you open a YouTube video, the extension automatically finds all the timestamps in the video's description and displays them in a clean sidebar next to the player.

The goal was to make it feel like a native YouTube feature rather than something bolted on afterward. Open a video, and all the chapters are already visible, no scrolling, no opening the description, no extra clicks.

Just click the section you want and jump straight to it.

If a video doesn't have timestamps, the extension simply doesn't activate. In that case, YouTube looks exactly the same as it always has. No timestamps means there's nothing for the extension to display.

A couple of downsides:

1. Desktop only

At least for now, it only works on desktop because it's a browser extension. Most people watch YouTube on phones through the official app, where browser extensions aren't really an option.

2. Occasionally things can break

This one surprised me when I first released it.

YouTube constantly runs interface experiments and A/B tests. Different users can see slightly different layouts at the same time. Because of that, an extension that works perfectly for one group of users might display incorrectly for another.

At first I spent way too much time worrying about this until I learned that it's simply part of building tools around a platform as large as YouTube.

Whenever I get reports about display issues, I usually investigate them, release a fix, and submit an update to Google. The actual fix often takes a day or two. The review process can take another day or two depending on how quickly the update gets approved.

The bonus feature I never planned!!! (This is the reason why I decided to publish this article in this subreddit)

While testing the extension, I accidentally discovered something unexpected.

Honestly, this little discovery might end up being almost as useful as the main feature itself.

Most people aren't exactly fans of YouTube ads. Especially those long ads before a video starts, or the videos that seem to get interrupted every few minutes.

During testing, I noticed that if an ad starts playing and I immediately click any timestamp in the sidebar, YouTube jumps forward and the Skip button appears almost instantly. Instead of sitting through 20 or 30 seconds of ads, I just click a timestamp and move on.

The interesting part is that this isn't an ad blocker, a hack, or any kind of workaround that modifies YouTube. As far as I can tell, YouTube itself handles the timestamp jump and ends up moving past the ad segment as part of that process.

Will YouTube eventually patch this? Maybe. I honestly have no idea, but at the time of writing, it seems to work.

The funny thing is that I found this completely by accident while stress-testing the extension and clicking every button I could think of.

Now it's become part of my normal workflow. I'm watching a video, an ad starts, I click a visible timestamp, and I'm back to the content almost immediately.

The only downside is that it only works on videos that actually have timestamps.

When I first discovered this behavior, I considered highlighting it in the Chrome Web Store listing. Then I realized YouTube could change things tomorrow and I'd end up promising something that no longer works.

So I left it out of the official description. Still, I thought it was worth mentioning here because it's genuinely useful. I also have a few ideas that might make the experience even better in future updates.

Why this feels especially relevant right now?

https://preview.redd.it/4xvxqly73l6h1.png?width=550&format=png&auto=webp&s=46e1cbf736d1090071afc3c81d6d155b211ca1ba

Over the last few years, YouTube has become much more aggressive with ads.

At the same time, traditional ad blockers have had a harder time keeping up. YouTube actively detects and limits many of them, and users occasionally run into restrictions or warning messages because of the blockers they're using.

Of course, YouTube Premium solves the problem completely, but not everyone wants to pay for another monthly subscription.

Who might find Timestamps useful?

You might like it if you:

· Watch long educational videos and want faster navigation

· Frequently jump between different sections of podcasts, lectures, or tutorials

· Get annoyed by YouTube ads but don't want another subscription

· Like making small improvements to your daily workflow

· Enjoy trying new tools and browser extensions

If any of those sound familiar, it's probably worth giving it a shot

How to install it?

The extension is available in the Chrome Web Store and takes about 10 seconds to install.

No registration, no account creation, and no email verification required.

Just search for: Timestamps – Handy Timestamps Right of Video

or use the direct link below 👇👇👇.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/timestamps-handy-timestam/gjaapmibjaaimjblibkcnehojjnppfhp

If you're using browsers like Edge, Opera, or Firefox, there may be ways to install it there as well, although the process is usually less straightforward than it is in Chrome. I haven't tested every browser yet, so if you've tried it outside Chrome, I'd be interested to hear about your experience.

Feedback is welcome

If you decide to try the extension, I'd genuinely appreciate your feedback.

Does everything display correctly on your setup?

Does the timestamp navigation work as expected?

And if you happen to test the ad-skipping behavior I mentioned earlier, I'd be curious to know whether it works for you as well.

Questions, suggestions, bug reports, feature requests - i'll do my best to respond and help however I can.

Thanks for reading.

FBI/Palo Alto World Cup Alert: 174+ spoofed domains. How are you hardening your Adblock filters?

A new security report on CybersecAsia citing the FBI, Palo Alto, and Kaspersky warns that cybercriminals are using the World Cup as a massive threat vector. The FBI has already mapped over 174 fake FIFA portals, Palo Alto is tracking malware hidden inside sideloaded streaming apps, and Kaspersky found that 17% of public Wi-Fi networks have zero encryption. As a enthusiast who focuses on risk management, I know that basic out of the box extensions won't cut it against this incoming wave of malicious ad networks, in app trackers, and aggressive script injections when fans start hunting for live streams.

To build a proper margin of safety, I am tuning my ad blocking setup by layering advanced anti phishing lists to kill those fake domains and using strict dynamic filtering to intercept malicious redirects before they execute. I have also pushed my Smart TV and streaming boxes onto an isolated media VLAN so that even if a sketchy stream slips past a cosmetic filter, the threat is sandboxed away from my personal PC and financial data. So, how are you guys updating your filter, custom scripts, or uBlock rules to handle the World Cup traffic?

Tip if you just want to totally ignore youtube/other apps ads with Roku TVs

I realize its more than its worth to me to go all out with network blocking of ads, esp youtube ads for my Roku tvs so i found a simple solution that keeps me from having to listen or see the ads.

It doesnt block the ad, as you still have to wait for it to finish but I dont have to hear nor see anything but a few seconds, all I do is once an ad starts, i mute the tv then hit the option button and push the *up* arrow (EDIT srry i said down by mistake) once to select the "Picture off" selection and then i wait a minute or so and then push the ok button and either hit skip or the ad will already have played through.

Sure its not skipping the ad, i cannot stand ads but i know how ad revenue works so I figure since the ad plays through, youtube still gets paid and I dont have to sit through any of the bs.

Not sure how ACR works but i figure the picture off setting doesnt block what it recognizes since its on the hardware end so youtube thinks the ad was served.

I use this on other apps sometimes but not nearly as much as i do with youtube, their ads are the worst.

*This obviously struck a nerve, i originally posted this to the Roku forum and it got removed within hours. If this is helpful to you pls repost this everywhere its relevant rofl.

uBlock Origin Lite on Chrome is not blocking Facebook ads – is there a better setting or filter list

I'm currently using uBlock Origin Lite on Chrome and it's simply not blocking Facebook ads. The ads are showing up everywhere on FB – in the feed, in the sidebar, everywhere.

I understand that Chrome's Manifest V3 limitations have crippled uBO Lite compared to the full uBlock Origin, but I'm stuck with Chrome for now.

A few things I want to know:

  • Is there a specific filter list I should enable in uBO Lite to target Facebook ads?
  • Are there any settings tweaks that actually make a difference?
  • Is uBO Lite even capable of blocking FB ads at this point, or is it fundamentally broken for this use case?

Currently running:

  • Browser: Chrome (latest)
  • Extension: uBlock Origin Lite
  • Issue: Facebook ads not being blocked at all

Any help or insight from people who've dealt with this would be appreciated. What's actually working for blocking Facebook ads on Chrome right now?

Looking for a good adblock for Samsung mobile

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I'm really tired of ads on YouTube and twitch so I'm finally looking for a good ad blocker for my phone (Samsung Galaxy A16 specifically)

I'd look for it myself but I'm tech-illiterate and stupid so I don't even know where to start. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Block ads on bloomberg.com/live

I watch live TV via bloomberg.com. They had an absolute ton of ads and they are routinely the same ads 2x in a row. Is there a way to automatically mute the ads? I know with Pluto On-Demand you can block them, this is a different beast. This is a live show.

I also use Charles Schwab's software Think or Swim and it will mute ads for CNBC but I can't listen to that channel anymore - just horrific but I really do like that feature.

edit: I watch via Chrome but I could use a different browser. If this is a stupid question, just delete it - sorry.

Free VPN to Block YouTube App Ads?

I love watching YouTube through the iOS app on my iPad but the ads are starting to get relentless and miserable. Is there a free VPN I can download on my iPad to change my server location and stop getting ads? Or some other way to avoid ads within the app so I don't have to switch to the browser?

Are ublock + ublock lite getting spammed with ads from YouTube?

For around the last week, I can't watch any YouTube on my pc because the videos just keep refreshing themselves. I have been using one of the VPN's that OperaGX has, and its helped get around the interruptions and watch stuff.

Now though, I am noticing that UB and UB lite are apparently blocking over 1,000 ads whenever I try to watch something?

what it says on the tin.

as you can see from the screenshot, i have no ad blockers installed yet youtube still won't let me watch videos. i'm also 90% convinced the report issue button doesn't do anything, so... yeah. looking for ways to fix/get around this issue.

i'm also looking for other adblockers that youtube won't detect, if there's any? thanks.

How do I get rid of these pre-installed ads on my tablet?

How do I get rid of these pre-installed ads on my tablet?

I got a tablet for my little brother, but these ads pop up all the time. Even on Netflix where I pay for no ads!

I tried doing what it said on google, but no solution helped me.

Tried the DNS thing, factory reset, and checked apps that could be doing it but nothing sticks out.

Does anyone know what I need to do to prevent these ads?

Recomended adblocker for Youtube mobile (android)

I can't take it anymore. Youtube ads have been shit for a while, but now it's beyond just being shit and it's becoming unbearable. I can't watch a video longer than 10 minutes without getting like 6 ads, sometimes less than 2 minutes aparts.

Can someone please recommend me an adblocker, preferably one for free?

Extensão grátis que dribla aquela tela "Ocorreu um erro" do YouTube (anti-adblock) e ainda pula os patrocinadores

Isso é a detecção de adblock do YouTube (acontece bastante no Brave/Opera por causa do bloqueador embutido). Uso **uBlock Origin** pra bloquear os anúncios + **Sponsorless** pra lidar com o resto: quando aparece o *"Ocorreu um erro"*, ela detecta e recarrega a aba automaticamente, então o vídeo volta sem você fazer nada (máx. 3 tentativas, sem loop). E ela ainda pula sponsor/intro dentro do vídeo. Os dois são grátis e dá pra desligar o reload quando quiser.

Help with Imgchest?

I’m trying to look at something on Imgchest on my phone via Safari, and lately every minute — literally, I swear it’s on the dot — it’s redirecting me to some ad.

Is there any way to stop it? Most of the tips I found look like they’re for computer.

ublock and adblock plus don't work for me

Hey, since today, the two adblockers I alternate with do not work on my opera browser (and the opera adblocker doesn't work as well)
I know I could switch to brave/firefox, but I like to have the video in a small window when I'm doing something else (no second screen on a laptop). So if you know another adblocker that still works, I am interested in it.
If not, I'll switch to watching videos on Brave until they update it.

Thank you!

Block ads on GoogleTV

Im making an adblocker^3 that blocks adblocker blockers on news sites.

it will never be paid, ever.

Also. it has a "few" extra features:
- Blocks malicious redirects
- Stops malicious code from running
- Stops phishing attempts
- Blocks auto email subscribe when opening a page.
- Has built in antivirus (you should have seen this coming from the first 2)
- Is an app

only pay is that it takes 1% of your ram and storage and stuff and sends it to my bare metal server host so everyone can afford a server regardless of economic class or place. as my server host is free.
The code will be open source (read only) on the website once it launches.

what do yall think, should i add anything else before launch

uBlock AND Adblock Plus

I use uBlock Origin, Adblocker Plus, and Opera's built-in adblocker interchangeably (like when one doesn't work, I'll use another.) None of them are working anymore. Specifically YouTube. Adblock Plus is automatically adding YouTube to it's allowed listed websites, even though I've been deleting it. uBlock just isn't working, and neither is Opera's built-in adblocker.

Is there any way around this, or am I screwed for the time being?

YouTube playlist issues

Good morning, I am using Firefox on my desktop with Ublock. I don’t mind waiting a couple of seconds for video with no ad.

But recently I have not been able to use playlists. When I try to use a playlist I have put together or an existing one, the first song or 2 will play and than, YouTube will just play whatever it decides to play next, completely exiting the playlist.

Has anyone run into this issue?

Thank you!

Brave Browser is allowing some ads through even when blocked by DNS

I've just found that Brave Browser is allowing some ad domains through even though I have aggressive DNS and blocking on my network.

This can be proved by:

Running ad block tests such as https://adblock.turtlecute.org/

See that all Doubleclick ads are failing the block test as well as one of the Google ads domains.

Now turn OFF Brave Shields up, or set Brave to "Allow all trackers and ads", the page refreshes, and those categories are now totally blocked by DNS!

Brave must be using their own DNS blocking to allow domains like this on my network. Has anyone experienced this and have a workaround? I'm guessing maybe if I block whatever DNS server Brave uses might do the truck but haven't dove in yet.

I'm just shocked by this, Brave is obviously getting some google money here with these shenanigans, and this definitely reduces my trust in Brave, after happily converting from Firefox a few years ago.

Nextdns deleted my post

I posted a detailed audit of dead blocklists in r/nextdns, and instead of engaging with the data, the moderators simply deleted the post. Since they seem unwilling to discuss this, I'm bringing the technical facts here to get a community perspective.

Please clean up dead and outdated privacy/adblock lists (Detailed List)

"Hello NextDNS Team,

First of all, thank you for a great service. However, many users have noticed that the Privacy and Security tabs in the dashboard are cluttered with completely outdated, abandoned, or even empty blocklists.

Having lists that haven't been updated in years defeats the purpose of modern privacy protection and can even cause issues. I took the time to go through the dashboard and manually compile a list of outdated or broken blocklists that should be removed or replaced:

☠️ Completely Dead / Empty Lists

• Fanboy's Enhanced Tracking List (Empty, 3 years)

• 1Hosts Mini (Empty, 1 year)

• 1Hosts Pro (Empty, 1 year)

• Energized Spark / Blu / Blue Go / Ultimate / Extreme Extension / Regional Extension / Basic (All empty, \~4 months since abandonment)

❗Outdated / Abandoned Lists (2 to 6+ Years without Updates)

• Disconnect Ads / Malvertising / Tracking (6 years old)

• NSA Blocklist (6 years old)

• MVPS Hosts (5 years old)

• Antipopads (5 years old)

• Unchecky ads (5 years old)

• Shalla's Blacklists (adv / tracker) (5 years old)

• WindowsSpyBlocker (Spy) (4 years old)

• CAMELEON (3 years old)

• yhosts (3 years old)

• AdAway (3 years old)

• notracking (3 years old)

• Lightswitch05 - Ads & Tracking (3 years old)

• ad-wars (3 years old)

• AdAway Blocking Hosts File for Japan (2 years old)

• add.2o7Net (2 years old)

• bkrucarci turk adlist (2 years old)

• Personal Blocklist by WaLLy3K (2 years old)

• Latvian List (2 years old)

• No Facebook (2 years old)

• Goodbye Ads (2 years old)

• Barbblock (1 year old)

Keeping these lists active gives users a false sense of security.

Suggestions:

Please remove the dead/empty lists.

Thank you for looking into this and keeping NextDNS up to date!"

[YouTube] Playlist issues with ad blockers.

Hi everyone, can anyone help me?

Music from the playlist stops playing at 0:01- 0:02 whether the page is on the screen or not, or it simply jumps to the next unsaved music track without any form of indication, after playing the saved track (regardless of its position in the playlist).

Adguard Premium Mod (Liteapks) not working on FireTV Stick anymore

Hi everyone,

I've been using the Adguard Premium Mod from Liteapks on all my Android devices for ages without any issues.

Today, I wanted to update the app on my FireTV Stick. I uninstalled the old version, downloaded the latest release from Liteapks, and installed it via atvTools.

However, the app suddenly doesn't recognize the patch/certificate anymore and asks me to purchase Premium.

What I've already tried:

  • Used the APK from Kpfire instead (same result).
  • Installed it via EASY Fire Tools instead of adbTools.
  • Cleared the app cache and data completely.
  • Tested the installation on a completely fresh/factory-reset FireTV Stick.

The strange part: The exact same new version works flawlessly on my Android smartphone. Also, my FireTV Cube (which is still running the older version) works just fine.

Has anyone encountered this issue with recent updates on FireOS, and is there a workaround or a specific version that still works?

Thanks in advance!

How to stop Adblock from blocking ads on a web site.

I'm trying to stop adblock from blocking ad on Snoops and a few other sites like Bored Panda but am unable. I click on the icon in the upper right and click on this website (the blue dot). Both this website and this page vere to left and go gray. Then I click on refresh this page. But that doesn't work. So I click on the icon again and I can watch it going from allowing to vering over to the left and not allowing.

What's up anyone know? Bored Panda, if I do that about 4 or 5 times it will finally allow ads. Not Snoops. Frustrating, hoping someone can help with this.

I use Google Chrome and Adblock Plus with Premium.

Got the adguard lifetime plan. Have few questions?

  1. I was using NextDNS free tier on device level (not router) to block ads. Do i need that? Should I use a faster DNS instead?

  2. How do i login using the windows app? i can see only option is to activate license or create an account. no login option

  3. On android there is no adguard app on playstore. But found that on samsung store. Is that legit?

  4. If i bind license to a device and reset that device, do i have to remove that license and bind again? or is it still attached with hardware ID or Mac
