YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers
In addition to better adblockers, I also learned how to use them better. For example, to update ublock origin's filter lists (which I now do every few days), click the chrome addon icon -> cog icon -> 'update'.
Also there are sites that give you exactly the same youtube videos, but without ads (and with improved privacy).
One such site is called 'invidious'. I made a very basic chrome addon that places the invidious link right next to the actual (youtube) link, so now if youtube blocks me, it's only ctrl + click to watch the same video ad-free. https://github.com/stevecondylios/invidious-linker#invidious...

Something peculiar in my 2yo's bedroom led me to a revelation about our universe
Most of the time you can just replace twitter.com with nitter.net or nitter.it but when these instances are down or blocked you can use other instances listed here: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances
But as the other commenter said Libredirect is the way to go: https://libredirect.github.io/

Dan Parker has sold off Yugipedia and YGOrganization, nine months after the Yugipedia Lost Incident
You can use https://libredirect.github.io/ to automatically redirect to a Breezewiki instance, but I'm not sure if LibRedirect would interact with YGOWiki Redirector or Indie Wiki Buddy.

Piped – An alternative privacy-friendly YouTube front end
You can embed videos from an Invidious instance instead; on a video's page[1] there's an "embed video" link[2] you can use. The instance can be one hosted by you if you don't trust public ones, and you probably want to enable proxying by default if you don't want your clients to stream the video directly from Google's servers. You can also use a browser extension like libredirect[3] to automatically replace YouTube embeds with Invidious ones while browsing the web.
