I mean ... ads are OK-ish of they pay for the content and as long as they don't track or are used for malvertising. So if sides change this removing adblockers sounds fine to me. But until then, I think #adnauseam is a nice tool to filter (non-)tracking ads and poisen the trackingdata.
We can also use this latest app developed from #louisrossman and #futo in response to YouTube banning invidious instances and also #opensource called GrayJay.
Grayjay is a unique media application that revolutionizes the relationship between content creators and their audience. Our app democratizes the content delivery process, shifting the focus from platforms to creators themselves.
Removes The "Ad blocker are not allowed on Youtube" - GitHub - TheRealJoelmatic/RemoveAdblockThing: Removes The "Ad blocker are not allowed on Youtube"
All the bad relationship that users have with advertising and the consequent use of ad-blockers are the well-justified reaction of a mass that has been "raped" everywhere and in all ways, on the internet, by a policy of aggressive marketing. We need to stop blaming the consumer who tries to defend himself from those who claim to sell instead of asking politely. The hostile climate towards the economy was created by those who dominate the economy.

in reply to Tuta • • •One option would be to watch YouTube via Invidious - a pretty good idea to protect your #privacy as well!
This at least works for now, but Google is also trying to kill Invidious:

Under EU law they are not allowed to deploy #adblock detection technologies.

It lists a bunch of uBlock Origin filters which I also use currently - and works for me (for now, at least until YouTube patches this).

in reply to Tuta • • •The best future proof Solution would be, use YouTube less and at some Point don't use it at all anymore.
Make use of other Platforms that are free from Corporate greed, like PeerTube or similar.
Urge your favorite Creators to take Action and also use/upload elsewhere.
That would be the first Step on a longer Journey of freeing the Internet from greedy Companies. 😉
