I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated, but I am guessing there are a lot of adblock users here and I was wondering if anyone has seen the youtube adblock warning message in the wild. I use ublock origin and still haven't seen it once.

I use Adblock Plus on my desktop, and I have not had the message yet.

I use it on iOS with uYou+ and I haven’t seen it, I also used Video Lite’s Adblock as well as on Safari with normal ublock and haven’t seen it either. Maybe it’s not on mobile yet

Adblock is piracy!

Just use Pided (https://piped.video), Invidious, Freetube or something else.

Youtube website is just trash bloated with JavaScript and trackers.

Invidious got a Cease and Desist Letter from youtube.

Is it now? then I'll do it harder.

Sadly youtube has all the sweet content, all these alternatives are lacking on that main thing, content.
