Does it affect Invidious front-end as well?? I have been noting that for a while now as well, but I thought maybe it because the page doesn’t use native js code to track video download. the same videos would load battery smooth when accessed through YT.

I’m not very tech savvy, my Adblock sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. I’ve been using Firefox with extensions incognito for YouTube or I just avoid the site these days. I really liked it for music videos, since in unwilling to pay Spotify. So far my strategy is working.

Never seen the “turn off your adblock prompt” because I never login to Google. Not that hard.

Wasn’t this confirmed to be an AdBlock (Plus) bug? twitter.com/gorhill/status/1746263759495077919
