After using youtube for 1-2 videos youtube detects you have an adblocker not uses a server side loading time to those with adblockers to essentially bar you from watching videos, even if you aren't watching an ad they still make you wait the time.

There's zero fix so you have to wait 10 seconds each time like its buffering.

Yet nobody is talking about it for some reason.

>>105566986 (OP)
I have this but it's only a matter of time when the internet comes up with a solution in a few days. If Twitch ads can be defeated, anything can.

>>105566986 (OP)
I rather wait 5secs for the video to load instead of getting an ad with twerking obese niggers shoved into my face. Youtube is deceiving normies with "ohhhh youtube is le broken because of le adblocker, the adblocker broke your computer! Saaaaaaar redeem adblocker saar"

Works

faggot.

>>105566986 (OP)
Works fine here.
Try updating uBlock Origin filters.

>>105566986 (OP)
to test this i would have to watch multiple youtube videos

>>105566986 (OP)
It's probably a good feature for most users here because maybe in those 10 empty seconds it'll make you wonder whether that trash video you clicked is actually worth your time

>>105567007
The delay is server side. The solution would be to cache every YouTube videos which is not realistic.

>>105567050
Yeah, imagine being OK with Youtube loading 20 seconds ads on average instead of waiting 2 seconds because of Google's intentional interruptions which will be fixed in a couple of days by uBlock Origin's contributors.

>>105567050
>>105567067
The blank screen is closer to 10-15 seconds

read a book

>>105567067
>2 seconds
It's 15 seconds now and will probably go up.

>>105567090
This has happened before and it took less than a day for it to be fixed.

>>105567074
blank screens are better than zesty niggers with purple/blonde hair telling me that taco bell is good

>>105567074
It's not 15 seconds. It's 4 seconds at most.

>>105567055
Didnt work

>>105567098
This is implemented server side this time.

>>105567116
It changed and will probably change again

>>105567155
Didn't they say the same thing about Twitch ads?

>>105567137
Well, you just have to wait for them to fix it them. It takes a some hours until some contributor notice it and fix it, as they have done several times in the past.

Nope, works fine. Try not being a retard

>>105567178
It seems like it was tested on some countries as far as a week back, but now its global for every single adblocker, even on brave, even on ublock origin with filters and or quick fixes off. You can't fix it, it's server side.

They activated this estimated around 4-5 hours ago globally for all IP's

>>105567155
If it was, it wouldn't only take 4 seconds of interruption and an ad would be shown. I think they are just tinkering with it, but I don't think they will ever manage to completely fix it because there's a solution for everything. It's a cat and mouse situation, and YouTube is the mouse.

>>105567180
It works for a couple videos to detect your adblock, then it starts doing this permanently. Just because it loaded once instantly doesnt mean it will.

4s to load the video? i wouldn't even notice, you have to be insane for this to bother you so much

>>105567218
It should load instantly, and usually it lasts a lot longer like 8-10 seconds if you dont have fiber.

>>105567090
Good. I would rather watch ten minutes of a black screen than a single second of obese twerking niggers.

For users who still see anti adblock occasionally, adding this custom filter might help:

>>105567172
It's not server side, you can still access the video stream to bypass the ads. What YouTube did here is not an ad but delaying your requests if you haven't watched any ads. This is server side and can't be fixed by ublock team. Ublock could try to make YouTube believe that you are watching ads but that would still delay the videos.

>>105567241
Bottom filters dont work.

>>105566986 (OP)
I can live with a black screen. Is there an ablocker that blacks our and mutes the ads?

>>105567241
Not working. Still varies between 5 seconds and 15 seconds

Stop updating your browser. I'm on Librewolf 137.0-3

>>105567051
it always works if you're logged in

>>105566986 (OP)
stop using chrome you fucking retard.

>>105567528
Thats firefox though

>>105566986 (OP)
say it.

>>105567409
They do random ip blocking, and they've been doing that for a while now if you're not logged in. Never seen them do this buffering stuff though.

>>105567574
I think it's even more than that, because I have two machines on the same network with different OS versions, and one of them is blocked and the other is not, using the same yt-dlp version. they must be doing TLS fingerprinting or something

I'm getting ads but they're not annoying enough for me to put the effort into finding a new ad blocker that works, and I don't know about a noscript substitute.
I get investing ads and hardware store ads, I'm sure if I was getting grubhub ads or other junk I'd be a little more proactive.
Still, hope it gets fixed. If YouTube can get around my adblock, so can bad actors.
Is it really necessary to try and stop ad blockers? I don't think it is. I don't want to see ads because I won't buy anything from said advertisement. People that want to see ads will and may be influenced by said ads.

Just log in goy we already identified you anyway

We have the same FFFFUCKING thread like 5 times a day, always from some idiot too stupid to use firefox or to update their block lists.
Jesus fucking Christ.

The funny thing is that it still works perfectly on Youtube on Firefox Mobile. I didn't see the popup at all when I just tested it. Only happens on Desktop.

>>105566986 (OP)
If your video "starts" somewhere in the middle if you click at the start then it works instantly. Youtube picked a war they cant and wont win.

>>105566986 (OP)
>so you have to wait 10 seconds
10 seconds is only like 10 seconds, dude

>>105567775
It doesnt work when you update your ublock and this is firefox.

This is a completely new block implemented by youtube today. This is fresh.

For those just wanting to get rid of the popup that appears on bottom left, just add this to your uBlock Origin's "My filters" tab:
! Remove the "Experiencing interruptions? Find out why" popup

use a better adblocker simple as that (or use old versions).
the navigators with those issues
>chrome : video will stop, no solution due to the "adblocker" not really blocking ads since is just hiding them only the reason it stops is because the ad ask you to skip to content but you aren't seeing the ad so will stay on black screen.
>firefox : randomly stops but pausing and unpausing fix the issue, while is problematic is the solution currently.
>opera : no issues at all, using duckduck essentials, ghostery, adguard adblocker, video plays normally from beggining to end.

Same. If I buy something, it's because I've done my research on different sites/shops/service providers and I've decided the best option myself. Not because I clicked an ad on fn YouTube.

Fuck advertising, and fuck corporations. No I will not buy your slop.

>>105567062
This is already happening to me. I've become much more critical of what videos I actually watch. Does make me consume less slop so it's not all bad.
Waiting 10-20s is preferable over watching any amount of ads.
I wonder how much me using pihole helps in addition to firefox+ubo. Never once saw one of those adblock warning popups on youtube.

I got the "find out why" message but then the video started playing and it still works.

>>105567266
>What YouTube did here is not an ad but delaying your requests if you haven't watched any ads.
So just tell the server you have watched ads.

>>105568812
Its still delayed for 5-6 seconds. Sometimes it stops doing it for 10 minutes and then it happens again.

It's still doing it. My theory why millions havent flooded reddit is that most people are such goycattle that they dont clear cookies, are all logged into gmail and are literal sheep robots.

Or youtube is just testing it out.

>>105568837
What pops up when you click on "Find out why"?

I've had this slowdown for months now but it's still faster and comfier than actually watching the ad it's replacing. I'd rather have the black screen and silence than some mcgoynald's hyperstimulating visual overload with blaring zoomer music.

>>105568847
NTA but it takes you to the troubleshooting page but with a # anchor to the "try turning off adblocker" section. Actually pissed me off with how passive aggressive this is

>>105568847
I tried brave since someone on plebbit said it worked with the adblocker "adshield", and it does. Not one buffering experiencing interruptions error yet and I'm not logged in at all.

Even on normie LTT videos there's no buffering at all but it may change.

I think its only for those with adblockers and logged out but idk havent tested it since I dont have a gmail account.

On plain firefox using arch linux with no account and basic ublock origin its broken, buffering and that error is presented constantly after 1-2 videos

>>105568857
kek, that's why I was interested what kind of bullshit did they put in there.

>>105567953
Thanks

>>105568837
I believe it. They NEED you to log in, and will even let you use adblockers if you do. Somehow, not being logged in is the bigger offense to them. 6 months ago I had logged out playback completely blocked for about a few weeks, which I'm guessing was a limited test because I didn't find anyone else reporting it. I tried every browser as clean installs and it was the same - black screen when logged out, instant seamless playback when I logged in, even in chrome with uBO on. It came back randomly one day, but I still had to switch to FF because the adblocker thing happened right after.
Now they won't even let me watch logged out on the tranny browser? Wtf is their problem?

>>105568879
Never seen anything like it but I'm market that is not that lucrative for youtube and I'm always logged into google account.

>>105569572
I already do this out of habit, having terminal brainrot is an advantage for once.

>>105569682
I have a gigabit connection but it still takes about 5-10 seconds so I think it's on a timer.

i tried watching a video with adblock off and literally couldn't even skip through the video to find a relevant part i wanted to see without it triggering an ad each skip
this is the moment, where you either pick to stop watching or starting paying for it
it watch several small channels and would hate to lose that, those are the only great thing about youtube, some guy uploading his guitar playing every day to 100 views, some girl with 500 subscribers giving life updates. I'll miss that.

I don't have this problem because I'm not a retard

>>105566986 (OP)
After that I switched all browsers to Librewolf with uBlock Origin and now Youtube doesn't have ads. I will never support LGBT again by using Brave or other Google monopoly browsers.

Yeah I'll take the loading time. It might even make me mindlessly scroll less.

>>105566986 (OP)

well you see, the problem is not the waiting, the problem is the ads.
I'd rather wait 15 minutes on a blank black screen than watch two brainrot tranny ads for 40 seconds

>>105566986 (OP)
not my problem

>>105567074
It's really not that long. At least for me it isn't. It's about 5 seconds max. It also goes away instantly if you F5 from what I remember, but I haven't done that in a long time.

Youtube was toying around buffering on ad breaks for awhile. You had to bypass it using the share version of the video.
All google had to do was have unobtrusive ads. The mandatory 30 second ads made me use adblocker in the first place.

>>105567266
Is AdNauseum the solution to this? Interact with every ad off-screen to test if YouTube thinks you're getting them

>youtube makes me wait for 10 seconds in silence, a window where i can go get a cup of coffee or something
>still don't have to hear about lobsterfest, my local internet provider, or the most recent horror slop coming out of hollywood
lost the battle, won the war

It's an upgrade to being force fed intrusively irrelevant ads over and over. But i only get the delay in one browser. No ads and no delay in another. Youtube is a strange place

>>105573213
Sure feels like it. Why would they do that instead of just giving you popup telling you to turn off adblock like every other time? There's no legal issue preventing them from doing so on other browsers, many sites like news sites outright block you no matter what browser or device you're on if you're using an adblocker (to the best of their ability anyway). Why would they go out of their way to design this passive aggressive popup that you have to click before they "suggest" that "extensions that block ads are affecting video playback"?

Kinda funny that this is the implementation that the brains at Youtube thought to go with. I don't expect the average user will even realise the website is being slowed purposefully. They won't notice or read the explanation in the terms of service. They will just think Youtube's servers are dogshit or blame their ISP.

>>105566986 (OP)
10 seconds of "pre-buffering" are still better than 10 seconds of advertising, specially if you live in a third world shithole with horrible advertising.

These throttles are designed to slowly make it suck more and more. If they suddenly imposed a hard no adblock rule, zoomers and indians would riot. So they slowly roll out throttles to small segments of users at different times to slowly make it shittier and less usable. This is designed to make people slowly trickle to the paid service or accept watching ads. Then they impose the a hard rule. Anyone who has a problem with it was never gonna give them monetizable views anyway, so nothing is lost. This is how it went with uBO/Chrome in late 2024 to early 2025. Except they can't simply ban uBO from other browsers and they don't have nearly the same amount of control as they do over chrome. So they are using different methods to fuck it up.

since people are already replying to this I ask, why you fucktards fall for this bait every week?

>>105574761
Every time you see these threads, it's because it was rolled out to a greater group of users. Every time they implement new measures, adblocker services need to invent increasingly complex solutions. YT already won on chrome. uBO is nuked and playback is now completely blocked for most (and will eventually be for all). Now they're affecting other browsers despite uBO. Eventually, adblockers will not be able to overcome the restrictions because Google has far more resources. Youtube has already successfully defeated things age restriction bypass to force logged in viewing. They have the capability to make users comply on their own service.
You could argue that there will always be some extremely convoluted way to bypass ads, but that's true for anything. A tiny % of users who are technically literate and dedicated enough to continue bypassing ads will not hurt them. And you're probably not one of those users in any case.

Just deal with it and give up, watching an occasional ad is more than worth the huge value you get for watching youtube for free. The alternative is pay walling it and then all of your filters are broken and unrecoverable

And I don't get any ads, every single time these threads happen I NEVER GET THIS because I have ublock origin. Fucking retards lmao

works fine for me, have you tried using a real adblocker

>>105566986 (OP)
I mean I don't wait at all with AdNauseam on Brave.

the problem with youtube is that it has decades (!) of music on it. bootlegs, video recording of concerts etc. there is no alternative for this.

>>105575646
not a bad idea, you could add another step..

we could all run an addon that mirrors the videos that we watch in the background somewhere else
we could even set an upload limit per day or only upload the videos when browser is idle
And if it matches a previously mirrored video it just embeds that instead of the ad ridden one.

There needs to be an extension that hoovers up every single youtube ad possible 24/7 in the background
You want to serve me fucking ads? Go ahead, I have infinite bandwidth and infinite traffic you fucking streetshitting faggots

on my Gentoo machines running firefox ESR and ublock origin I get ZERO ADS and never have.

I use Firefox and I've seen tons of these threads, but I've never seen any anti-adblocker tech that works. No ads here still.

No you're just using a jeetbrowser and jeetdows like a baby duck you moron.

>>105576426
its not account based, i've gotten the problem in the past when I didn't update my chrome, as soon as I updated the problem went away. People are just retarded and never update because it never tells you exactly where to go to update so people just think "it auto updates" but it doesn't lol

>>105566986 (OP)
It only works on retards like you. Doesn't work on any of my dozen machines, various IP, VPN, etc. RETARD!!

>>105576006
why would I have issues
bet you any amount my chrome+ubo will do ad free youtube longer than up-to-date chrome+ubo. maybe there will be an update that fixes it again for you, maybe not. i dont think google is interested in supplying software to people who want to view ad free youtube.

There have been hundreds of these same threads, always by some Indian, with a somewhat triumphant sound to his posts (Jewgler for sure lol) crowing about how THIS IS THE END OF AD BLOCKING FOREVER and every single time, everybody reports no issues.

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

It's spam at this point.

Its literally only an issue when you don't update but you're too retarded to realize this, not my fault you and everyone else don't listen.

My point is that I didn’t have problems five years ago, I didn’t have problems last year, I don’t have problems now, and I won’t have problems next year because my setup just fucking works. It works to the point that I forget youtube even has ads until I come here and see you niggers whining that your jeetscripted setup stopped working. Are these popups even real? Are you real?

>I had an Internet Connection Monitor addon for Chrome so I can see when my internet is shitting the bed, (It's unreliable at best). Is there an equivalent addon for Firefox? The only one I saw when looking it up had like 5 reviews total.
It'd be nice to have again, being able to see my ping and uptime statistics was convenient, but for now I just opened cmd and did ping 1.1.1.1 -t so I can just look over and see when my internet cuts off and returns so it's not really a big deal.

No problem.
The devs of Internet Connection Monitor said in their site that a Firefox version will be released, but it's not done yet.
This is the closest that I could find: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/internet-connection-monitor/

If you have more customization questions, let me know here's some examples from about:config advanced settings page:
- disable Pocket native extension: set extensions.pocket.enabled to false
- change UI to compact mode: set browser.uidensity to 1 and browser.compactmode.show to true
- remove "Inspect accessibility Properties" from context menu: devtools.accessibility.enabled to false
- remove Screenshot native extension: set extensions.screenshots.disabled to true
- remove AI chatbot from the sidebar integration: set browser.ml.chat.enabled to false

And to enable HEVC hardware decoding, download the extension "HEVC Video Extensions from Device Manufacturer" from Microsoft Store (a link from about:support page in Firefox, in the "Media" section, will redirect you there)

At this point, I've decided that nothing new on youtube will ever be interesting so i'm just yt-dlp'ing my favorites and saying fuck it to the site. What am I going to be missing out on? shitty reels? pointless drama? shit I laugh more here and i'm not rotting my brain. In fact, holy shit. I'm even reading.

Anyways. fuck youtube. fuck this arms race. fuck the enshittification of youtube as a platform.

>>105577504
Yea adshield seems to fix it, ublock origin is broken lmao.

Youtube BTFO. I just use ungoogled-chromium with it

Seems like disabling cosmetic filters on youtube fixes it. You'll have to see the image ads on the side page but video ads are gone.

>>105578353
Seems to be fixed today, either uBO team fixed it, or YouTube disabled it and was only testing it yesterday to collect some real world information.

still works on my machine

Still has to happen to me, since I barely use youtube, but if anything internet ads make me not touch the company ever.

The less people to use ad blockers the better. Have the masses watch the ads or pay the premium.
Never suggest others to use ad blockers.

>>105578879
Nah I will always use uBlock Origin.
I'll stop using it once they start paying for my electricity bills for the extra crap they download (ads).

Had it happen today, got done watching a video with no issues then twice the video "froze" audio kept playing and had to reset the video. It continued to happen multiple times.

google is 1000% a scum jewish AIDS monetized malware platform. if the world were sane a bill against "anti-adblock detection" would be in federal court at this very moment simply because they do not vet their shitty ads and allow scammers to roam free on their platforms against the ignorant underage and the old and vulnerable.

I had this issue yesterday. 15 to 20 seconds wait time to start a video. But I've also had this issue before as well And the fix is to just clear your cache/cookies.

still better than actually watching ad brainrot. I'd rather spend that time looking at a wall. maybe that's the 10 seconds many people need to reflect and realize they are wasting their lives on worthless slop.

I just checked and my script to search for videos and pull up my history still works without issue. Pipes into yt-dlp+mpv just fine still. If they break it again oh well the 5 minutes to fix it has never been a big deal.

For shits and giggles I checked on firefox on my laptop and two desktops. Working just fine and the wait they've introduced is only like 2 seconds max. I switch to my other non-fiber ISP which usually got the A/B testing roll out first and it's still on the old version at the CDN. So I guess they're not testing shit with them first anymore since most everyone in the area much have moved over to fiber by now.

Stop crying about it. Normalfags are going to keep watching ads and paying for this bullshit no matter what we do. It's the same thing every couple of months. Just update your adblocker like always.

>>105568465
thats why i didnt like that adnauseum plugin which was being shilled as a good alterantive to ublock.
how it worked was it would click ads in the background, basically punishing the business owners and rewarding jewgle. no surprise the plugin admin is all jewish.
fuck those people who shilled that garbage.

>HAHA poorfags. I'm funding my own genocide and getting propaganda without ads in return!
I bet you send money to "content creators" to don't you?

Meanwhile, I'm not seeing ads AND I'm not seeing in-video product placement. I'm even auto skipping the faggy self promotion when I actually do watch some crappy video produced by an idiot in his mother's basement. I don't need an account or web browser either.

No one is impressed that you're pissing away $50 a year for something you shouldn't be paying for in the first place. It isn't a flex on the poorfags because you got to pay for propaganda for 50% off. I'm sitting on hundreds of accounts from when gmail was invite-only. Many of them are getting banned on the daily because I refuse to send them a cell phone number. I don't care about losing them but I'm sure you'll be crying when they finally get around to taking access to yours away.

I haven't paid for any form of media or entertainment since 1998. Excluding stuff IRL like theme parks and festivals. But even with those I refuse to pay the regular rates. Since most stuff is way overpriced now. Whenever possible I figure out a way to sneak in for free. Which is what I did for the last 3 concerts I attended and the last couple of sporting events. Can't even buy beer at a sportball game anymore with cash. They want you to dox yourself for the privilege of paying $10 for some shitty piss water.

Enjoy your overly compressed music you can't access when the internet goes down I guess. I'll continue enjoying FLAC and TrueAudio streamed directly from my home server to anywhere in the world.

>>105566986 (OP)

you can deal with that when it happens
not a valid argument for the right now

>>105586362
Remember when there was one “tier” of Premium and it had zero ads? Remember when literally every streaming service did the same thing? It’s not a matter of if they try to fuck you over harder, it’s a matter of when, both because they’re greedy kikes and also because Dodge Bros v. Ford Motor Co. set a literal legal precedent that they have to squeeze as much money as possible out of you. The winning move is to fuck them over as hard as you can in return. If you don’t understand this you are either a shill or terminally retarded (or, realistically, both)

>>105586429
You know how they keep fear mongering that taking a screenshot of your own desktop isn't "secure"? Doesn't take a genius to see where they want to go with that. It isn't "secure" for _them_. Since they want to be able to charge you money to view content but would really hate it if someone made copies of it.

>>105566986 (OP)
refresh page, switch user agent, etc. Always fixes crap like this

I checked with firefox on my home desktop and I am not getting the delay. If there is a delay it isn't enough to be annoying. Last night the
>experiencing delay? Click here
Crap started popping up every time I loaded a new video. But the delay is like 1-2 seconds and now the pop up isn't appearing at all. I'm logged into a burner account most of the time but I logged out and navigating as guest doesn't cause delays either. I know I got the update because some other things changed in the DOM (I check it fairly often).

I'm starting to wonder wtf kind of browser you're using if you're having this issue since mine has pretty much every add-on for firefox you can get that makes youtube bearable to use again.

I don't know why everyone always freaks out though. Just use yt-dlp if you're really fed up with youtube. Worse case you'll need to make a burner account and feed it a cookie for some videos. I haven't had to touch it in months since the last time I re-installed it. I get updates for it automatically and it works fine when piped into mpv or anywhere else. There are like 20 different well maintained bash/sh scripts out there to navigate anything you need from youtube. The only thing you don't get is the chat rooms and comments. Which are useless anyway because they're just spam.
