The UBO guys have recommended turning off other plugins (obviously, start by turning off everything, then turn stuff on slowly until you find what is conflicting).
Oh, and make sure you’re on Firefox, not any chromium based browser (Edge, Chrome, Opera, Brave etc).
I’ve also seen suggestions that you should try removing any custom filters (can’t remember if that’s direct from the UBO guys or not)
That would just put an undue burden on the places that host the blocklists, for no good reason. Purge is something that only needs to be done manually in particular cases like this one.
It’s being discussed as a solution to counter the changes Google is making on a daily basis, so that sounds like it’s going to be needed moreso going forward.
Not everyone would want the cache cleared all the time. Cache is useful, it prevents you from reloading everything every time. If he was to add the functionality it would probably need to be an adjustable setting.
If you’re using UBlock Origin do the following:
Go to settings. Go to Filter Lists. Click purge all caches. Click update now.
That’s it, this message should disappear entirely.
What youtube is trying to achieve is technically impossible, unless they merge the advertisements into the videos.
don’t give them ideas
It’s already possible to block those with Sponsorblock.
What you’re saying is already very possible. Twitch is at the forefront of fighting adblockers and they’re constantly adding new ways to serve ads.
Realistically speaking I think YouTube has been only tolerating ad blockers and will start rolling out new methods next year.
I haven’t gotten an ad on twitch in like a year
It worked for me but minutes later it started appearing again

UBlock should just add code that automatically does that every time you start the browser, or daily.
