uBlock origin still blocks YouTube ads.

Google is highly profitable, take the subscription fee and donate it to someone who will help people instead of just develop more sophisticated ads and ways to remove blocking from browsers…

LTT has said in one of their WAN shows? Or their financing show? That YouTube Premium members get them more money than ad watchers.

I’m happy to help support YT creators in this way.

If you use YouTube enough that ads annoy you then just pay for YouTube Premium.
You only need to use YT a couple times to already be annoyed by the unskippable and numerous ads, plus inline advertisement, that your face will get slapped with.
Would not mind paying if I knew what to expect from the start of their service. Now they are abusing more and more their market position to fuck their customers. No way I'm paying for that shit.
uBlock is better, free, available in more regions, and you don’t have to login to your Google account to use it.
Not available on my TV.
