Youtube has better anti-adblock now. Other than Invidious, any way around it? Purging and re-dowloading the ublock stuff didn't work (lemmy.ml)

Yep. 2nd part is important.

The way I solved this was to leave my regular browser setup alone, make a new Firefox profile just for YouTube, install ONLY ublock origin, and create a shortcut to that profile on my desktop.

Now I only use that profile for YouTube. I haven’t seen one ad since this thing started.

Firefox has profiles?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Always has been.

See about:profiles and the --profile ${directory} switch.

I did the same for Facebook
