So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work.

I found a link to a that said 11% use adblock. Thats not a lot.Maaayyyybe there is a problem with the amount of ads youtube forces down our throats for even short videos. 🤷‍♂️

    It’s bullshit like this that made me give up all Chromium browsers earlier this year. I used to be a complete Google simp, but those days are well behind me. They’re motto these days might as well be “Do evil.”

      I went from loving Google (had the HYC Dream, the first Android phone!)

      Many years ago I cut em out. Now I have no google products and do not use their services.

        I also had the HTC Dream (called the TMobile G1 in the US). Only google product I haven’t been able to ditch is gmail.
