    Crap I just opened youtube today and it looks like I was chosen. The ads load like normal videos and it sucks. My brain actually glitched for a couple of seconds when I opened a video because I wasn’t used to seeing an ad. I dunno if there’s any chance uBO can even counter this.

      Try to watch the video embedded, simply edit it’s URL, using instead of

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxx

      this URL

      https://www.youtube.com/embed/xxxxxxxx

        Welp, restarted my laptop and I’m off the testing list so can’t replicate (unless I turn off uBO of course). But thanks, this will be handy if it happens again.
