Youtube vs AdBlocker

youtube is going downhill slowly

 

[Webzcas]

I personally do not use ad blockers, but I have to say the number of advertisements played during youtube videos has grown exponentially over the course of the last 18 months. This coincides with YouTube pushing their Premium subscription service which offers a no ads viewing experience.

I get it that YouTube and their content creators need and want to monetise their content, but it is extremely annoying when walking the dog, every three minutes or so, the video I am listening to is interrupted by a crypto trading ad or the such like.

Meaning I have to stop, get my phone out of my back pocket and click skip ad, so as not to be subjected to inane drivel that has absolutely no interest to me whatsoever.

 

[goatwack]

I think content creators have had some ToS changes foisted upon them not that long ago, whereby adverts can be implemented right at the start, slap bang in the middle and of course at the end.

So with that I'd imagine many to take them up on that, though I'm not sure of the exact criteria to be eligible for that option.

With so many ads now headed our way it's little surprise that Youtube would want anyone blocking them effectively, I should imagine.

Still, always great to mix up the VPN settings for awesomely cringe foreign ads, like, say, Dutch. Or French

I use Tor browser IP change every 5sec, never get any adds on YT,

 

[Guntis]

I use a Brave browser; it sorts all out, plus it has an integrated crypto wallet if needed. It's like Chrome but crafted more towards user privacy with additional features.

YouTube works fine for me, I never seen that notification from them even, probably it got blocked lol..

content creator here, don't meet the requirements to apply for monetization with YT but the platform still puts ads on my best videos. YouTube has gotten greedy

 

[YouTubeSlots]

I've started getting these pop ups just last week it started doing it. Gonna look into some of the ideas shared here see if that helps with these pop ups. Bloody annoying they are

 

[Webzcas]

Not heard of that browser before, will have to have a look at it.

 

[Downsman]

uBlock Origin is working well for me..no pop ups thus far.

 

[GourdFollower]

I can't watch YT with ads -- they drive me crazy.

I've been using the "Enhancer for YouTube" extension in Firefox for years. No challenge to that yet. (Fingers crossed.)

I will give Brave a try too, thanks for the recommendation @Guntis !

 

[Guntis]

Yeah, it's a decent one, but take a closer look to see how its settings in "Global Defaults" work for you otherwise, you might not get into your banking page if all is set to too 'aggressive'. Gov sites like the UKGC can also start blocking you after a few visits. I recall once i was playing with the settings and then could not access anything lol

My ones look like this, and all works fine except for a few sites that apparently want to have more info about me before letting me in.

Mainly i'm using it to see clear SERP results without ads and without remembering my previous searches. It's also possible to set different profiles each for a different geo location. On Chrome i have all set to the other way around to see what ads and other things are running. Generally, it's all about personal choice and the usage goals.

 

[justdoit]

Yt is getting worst every year, Last year I was getting so many views on my videos, January this year they shadowbanned me, now is very hard to even get min views... most of UK gambling videos YT shadowbanned, Only Bandit is making lot of money from YT

 

[toms596]

I signed up to YouTube premium via a Turkish VPN something like £1.98 a month for a family plan

No ads and I can download videos

 

[screecher]

Another vote for Brave browser. Works a treat.

 

[justdoit]

even FBI recommends using blocking extension

Does that work on the iPhone version of Firefox as well? If so I will be using it for my dog walks.

The ads on Youtube are becoming more and more prevalent now, even putting ads on my own personal channel which has a whopping 11 subs. It is not monetised!! It is becoming such a PITA.

But then, this morning met with a cheery splash screen, inviting me to to try Youtube Premium for the family for £16.95 a month - Yeah right, as if I am going to pay that LOLOLOL

 

[Downsman]

There's no need to suffer with the ads..ublock..adblockplus..extensions for Chrome or Firefox
will rid you of the pesky things, i've not seen an ad on YT since using the above ever.

 

[Guntis]

is also a decent solution, it works on all operating systems and modern web browsers. Some websites might ask to disable it to view their contents, but it's generally rare. For Windows users is just a regular Chrome extension. How it works for Apple; no idea.

In Apple works fine

[RobDev]

Interesting! not seen this yet... I have a current premium trial so not seeing any ads at all. Interesting to see where this goes lol

 

[GourdFollower]

Apple does not allow Firefox add-ons or extensions on iPhones or iPad ( ) -- just for desktop; but Brave blocks ads (including Youtube) on those.

Try this:

Remove anything UK-ralated from your channel (gamstop, .uk websites. etc) and show your videos to a global audience. When uploading new videos, vary locations in the 'Recording date and location' settings. Also, remove 'English UK' and change it to just English. For gambling help links you can use gamblingtherapy.org, it's a global service.

Forget about moronic video titles others create. Make yours more natural while keeping them keyword-optimized, and always keep your YT brand name at the end, for example:

- Dead or Alive 2: Mega Win via 5-Scatter Bonus (5,187x) | uTubeSlots ?

- Slot Bonanza Big Win 8,000x | uTubeSlots ?

uTubeSlots looks really good, and you need to push it so YouTube/Google bots and your visitors can recognize it better.

An easy way to increase your brand visibility for bots would be to start uploading screenshots to Pinterest and Twitter, and then linking back to your YouTube channel showing a video of a particular win.

Don't forget to stick your YT logo on those screenshots.

When uploading a new video, always include context, at least minimal. The simplest way to do it would be using the entity, attribute, and value model. For example:

In this video, uTubeSlots played the following NetEnt slots:

Slot: Dead or Alive 2

Entertainment Value

- High-quality graphics
- Immersive sound effects
- 5 reels, 9 paylines
- Free spins feature
- Sticky wilds
- Scatter symbols

Volatility & Risk

- High volatility
- RTP: 96.8%

You can easily copy/paste this info from the providers page, and add a few emojis or symbols to make the list look better.

Then, include links to 3 of your previous videos. By doing so, you offer viewers an opportunity to browse your channel further, improving the user experience. Interconnectivity is highly likely considered a part of the "helpful content" by their algorithms.

Plus it also means you're linking your videos together creating a network of interconnected content around your entity (uTubeSlots). This makes it easier for YouTube's bots to find your content as well as better recognize the channel.

At least sometimes consider using services from Legiit, Fiverr, or microworkers.com to create an activity in your video comments section. This is the most important part of ranking your videos in the Youtube search. Many others are using them too.

For best results, you need a strong template of procedures. For example, if you leave a useless comment like congrats, wow, nice, etc, you won't be paid. Instead, they must ask keyword-rich questions related to the video title, etc.

I'm not sure what the purpose of your channel is, but for the brand name, you could create a simple website with the domain name utubeslots.com.

All this is what I would do if I had a YouTube channel like yours

Apparently, they are testing user behavior. More details here.

.

- YouTube has confirmed that it is conducting a global trial of a three-strikes rule against users who use ad-blocking software.

- If users continue to use ad-blockers after repeated notifications urging them to allow ads, their video playback could be temporarily suspended.

- The details of the policy were revealed to Android Authority by a YouTube spokesperson, who noted that using ad blockers violates YouTube's Terms of Service.

 

[Downsman]

Dragging a video to the end and re-starting it still works as well..at least for now.

I use this hack on an old Kindle Fire.

 

[justdoit]

I start VPN IP on places where add dont exists Vietnam ?

best just sing off from youtube refuse all data, that will be worst for youtube

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

Word on the street is that YouTube are fast running out of available storage to host all the vids anyway.

Something about some English bloke called Dazza G using far too much memory space up with winning bonanza sessions.

A YouTube spokesman said ‘We would have expected his bank roll to have been exhausted by now, but somehow he keeps pulling a rabbit out of the hat, we are monitoring the situation. It is our belief that any normal human being simply can’t win on a 96% RTP slot for 2 and a half years solid. An investigation has now begun and we won’t be commenting further until we review our findings.’

This is my YT stopped suggesting your Big Bass 10x win

 

[justdoit]

[justdoit]

I've started getting these pop ups just last week it started doing it. Gonna look into some of the ideas shared here see if that helps with these pop ups. Bloody annoying they are

best think firefox adblocker plus on and vpn on Ukraine, I am using for week now all good

 

[Guntis]

In Ukraine, they stopped showing ads temporarily. But i see some are mentioning Albania, Moldova, and Myanmar. They apparently don't buy anything through YT so consequently YT doesn't spend resources to show their ads in these countries.

Which script do you have to install tho? Just installing the extension won't do anything and there's tens if not hundreds of Youtube no-ad scripts when you search ?

click on browser you using and download, Firefox works for me,

[Kroffe]

Ublock origin also works, im using it on Chrome. (free and open-source)
Pretty funny, when i went to uninstall my old adblocker it asked me if it was because of youtube, and it also said they were working hard to fix it so it works again.
Like i have the patience to wait for things to work again, pff.

Well yes, but the extension itself does nothing. You need to download the scripts you want to use.

I've downloaded this one, it was the first one in the list and had good reviews:

Blocked ads twice so far it says.

this extension is not adblocker, all time you play a video on YT will change the skrip and let adblocker do is job without YT blocking your video and ask you to pay £12pm or remove adblocker

 

[justdoit]

this one also works fine without ads, you need to disable Adblocker

[maxd]

So I've been following along with this, tried a few things and so far haven't been happy with anything enough that I'd be willing to count on it.

What boggles my mind though is why is Youtube asking so much for the monthly fee. That's ridiculous! It's more than any other media subscription we have. More than Netflix, more than Apple, more than ... you name it. If they'd just offer a reasonably priced subscription -- 5 a month or something -- people would pay it easy-peasy. I know I certainly would. Asking a silly price just forces people to search for ways around it.

- Max

 

[Kroffe]

Ublock stopped working 1 or 2 days ago.
Imo youtube is completely unusable without an adblocker, and as Maxd already pointed out the premium subscription is much too pricey.

If they want money from me they have to have a sensible offer, otherwise i will find spend the time it takes to bypass it.
