I'm using Ad Block Plus for Chrome. It all of a sudden is showing ads. Any idea why? Also, what ad blocker are you using? (If it helps, I am now on Windows 11 with Chrome as my default browser).

On Youtube, you mean?

Enough vendors must have finally complained to Youtube that it was easy to use Adblock software to bypass ads, so it seems they've addressed that. I await a work around because I absolutely detest watching ads and I don't want to pay for their absence. At least not to CorporateTube.

Youtube has become all but unusable with so many ads. If it's not annoying enough to have to sit through two ads before watching a video, when something breaks at a random point part way through to screen another ad or two I typically give up watching it. There's nothing on Youtube important enough to tolerate more than a small amount of that stuff.

Thank you to those who replied. I removed AdBlock Plus and downloaded uBlock Origin. It's blocking ads both on websites and YouTube (for now at least). :)
