Ublock does not prevent this pop-up. Source: me. I started getting the pop-up tonight on Firefox with Ubock running. I was able to clot the pop-up and watch the video without ads, but the extension does not hide it completely.

I’d argue that YouTube actually makes the Internet less useful overall.
Whereas once upon a time I could find information in text form NKW EVERYTHING IS A FUCKING VIDEO. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!? WHO IN THEIR RIGHT FUCKING MIND WANT TO FOLLOW ALONG WITH SOMETHING HAVING TO MASH THR LAUSE BUTTON AND REWIND THR VIDEO EVERY FOR[Y FUCJING SECONDS? JUST FUCKING STOP IT. AND IF ITSCOMPULSIVE DO THE RRST OF THE WORLD A FAVOUR AND TAKE A LOJG WALK OFF IF A SHORT PIER.

I think it’s nice to have both, but I get your point.
I’m mostly still able to find text explanations for what I need.

You’re right for now, but OP is right that Google has been actively making YouTube worse and worse. Imagine if they used their resources to make YouTube premium better instead of this bs.
