A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm waiting to see Youtube block me using Vivaldi w/uBlock Origin on Linux so far. It hasn't happened, am I accidentally doing something awesome to evade their traps so far?
Vivaldi's Chrome-based, so I would presume the same tricks to detect uBlock Origin on Chrome itself would work, or is Vivaldi doing something sneaky?
I have no problem jumping to Firefox the moment they do it -- I just haven't had an issue yet. I should add I'm in Canada, perhaps that is a factor.
Probably A/B testing.
I'm using Adblock Plus on Edge and have the same experience like you. No reaction from Youtube yet to my adblocker.
In-built adblockers aren't going to be affected by MV3 anyway. They are not extensions, thus Google is powerless there.
Firefox with uBlock Origin on Windows. Nothing so far.
I guess they only want to fuck their own customers so far?
