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...
