The workaround is pay for YouTube premium.
Edit: the above is is what the article says. Not my opinion. YT can get bent. Firefox + uBlock has been my "workaround" for years.

I hate when they say paying the premium is a "solution". It's worse. That's why nobody is doing it.

Man, if YouTube weren’t paying my bills, I’d drop it in a heartbeat, such an exploitative, predatory platform.

Is this a sponsored article? Bc buying yt premium doesn't seem like a workaround to me.

are you paraphrasing what the article said or saying it yourself?

I actually have a Premium subscription, but it's kinda half assed journalism to suggest that as a solution.

Especially since Adblock Plus take payment to whitelist adverts.

With all due respect, that's exactly what the article suggests is the solution.
Didn't read it, did you?

Don't shoot the messenger, they're just citing the "workaround" from the article. The article also mentions using uBlock but only after writing two paragraphs convincing you that Premium is totally the solution to go with.

The article can say that the sun is blue, that doesn't make it true - which is the point you're ignoring.
Because buying premium is not a workaround for an ad blocker not working, it's giving up on the broken extension.

I think that's fine. Let the non-tech-savvy users pay for the service. It seems like they deserve it, and also they keep YT running for "free".
You can keep enjoying YT with Firefox + uBO or PipePipe on your phone.

I'm not going to debate you on that, but the original commenter was saving people the effort of reading a pointless article, and getting shat on for it.
I didn't think that was fair.

I read it it comes off as an ad for premium
And that ain’t the solution

wrote last edited by [email protected]I don't care if you want to debate it, the point of the article is wrong. The original commenter doesn't deserve the hate, but their summary of the article, while being accurate to the article, is not a real work around.
I didn't attack them, so I'm not in disagreement there. But you chose a rather respectful reply to be the disrespectful hill you chose to die on.

Have you noticed uBlock Origin being a bit hit and miss on YouTube lately? I’ve had it happen a few times lately where the video won’t play, or an ad comes up but doesn’t play. I’ve had to keep refreshing until it gets to normal where it just plays the damn video.
