Some users with adblockers installed have noticed that videos are skipping straight to the end all of the sudden.

    I have been using Brave as my browser for years, I have never once seen an ad on YouTube. Nor have I ever had any of the issues that have been reported with people using ad blockers.

      Don’t use brave, they’re shady. LibreWolf with uBlock Origin is plenty.

      I’ve had this issue where youtube is sort of breaking for me, but it shouldn’t matter because I very begrudgingly pay for Youtube Premium.

      (I’m not extremely tech savvy to the point where it’s easy for me to set up a raspberry pi or whatever to watch youtube in bed on my tv OK?)

      Anyways, sometimes it like, gets weird and the video player gets stuck at 0:00 and loops like 3 seconds of the video.

          Sadly, I checked and if you try to sign up with A VPN it cock blocks you and says “sowwy can’t vewivy yow cowntwy :(”

          And you have to make a whole new youtube account just for it.
