Get Firefox, install uBlock Origin, clear the filter cache, and reload the filter cache.

Worked for me and my dad

It is time to stop the Chrome plauge.

My family watches several Youtube channels on the main HTPC. It had Chrome for them to use, as that is what the kids and my wife are familiar with from school/ work. Then this BS started. I use Firefox on my personal PC and have yet to have a problem.

So I dumped Chrome off of the HTPC.

It would be amusing if Chrome lost a ton of market share to Firefox and other browsers.

Sharing this: don't know why this works, but my dad found refreshing the cache in UBlock makes this thing finally shut the fuck up.

Honestly, if YouTube offered a $5 adfree video plan I’d pay for it. It’s not worth $14/month in my opinion

Ublock Origin Settings - Clear Cache - Update - Refresh Youtube

Fuck You, Tube

This arms race sucks.

I'm glad, uBlock Origin blocks all these adblock blockers.

A reminder that if this doesn't work, they'll bake ads into the player like Hulu and Twitch. Can't block those, at least in a way that gets you back to the content seemlessly.

I knew Google would get around to killing YouTube sooner or later: Looks like the slow death has begun.

Like all things Google that people like: It must die, Google will not allow it to live.

This pop up, did more to curb my youtube addiction than any other app.

You can put up with that... Or you could just switch to a Piped instance and be done with it all.

What could come of people clicking on the “Report issue” option and sending back tons of false reports claiming that they have gotten the pop-up message despite not using an ad-blocker?

I just clear the YT sites' cookies, relog in and it disappears. I use AdNauseam and uBlock Origin and still got this.

If they weren't so intrusive with the garbage ads (I hate publicity, over 95% of it is condescending and/or lies), I wouldn't mind seeing an ad in the beggining, or even also an additional in the middle of a long video, but getting two unskippable ads in the beggining and one every 5 mins or less is abusive. So fuck you Google.

Going to install a local instance of Piped or Invidious.

It's revanced / gray Jay time

report it as an issue

Update ublock filters.

While uBlock Origin does the trick and has for a every long time, I just installed FreeTube and I am quite happy with it. It is also much better at keeping track at what I have watched, and I can even mark videos as watch (which I cannot over at YouTube).
