Mine are getting trapped by pihole. They take 10 seconds to time out and just show a banner ad that won't automatically go away without hitting the skip button. It's really frustrating since I liked letting videos auto play as I fall asleep.
at least it's not currently spawning an actual video advertisement, so, small blessings, the two injected ads stay static for 10 seconds a piece (makes sense), and if you don't click skip, the first tiers to the second then tiers to the video (was thinking of going pihole but you just confirmed it won't make a difference, if they start injecting autoplay video ads, then it'll be back on my todo list)
There's a comment in this thread with a ubo custom filter that's working for me.
yup, just tried that too, and after a reboot, it's working for me too
