Doesn't matter which one you use, they found a way.

You will, don't worry. Doesn't matter which one (ublock, adblock, et cetera) they are testing a way to get around it.

Lots of creators are getting around adblockers as well by putting ads/commercials done by themselves. A lot of them make alittle comedy out of it so it isn't a total loss. For example the animators over at FlashGitz act out their own commercial for Raid Shadow Legends.

At least when it's part of the video we can skip past it.

Some of the commercials can be entertaining. The Raid people just give an outline on what they want said and let the creators make what they want. At least then it's entertaining even if I will never download the app.

GrayStillPlays is pretty funny with his Raycon commercials. I liked the Micheal Reeves and William Osman 'The Boys on Amazon' sponsored video too.

I, however, refuse to watch the same 30 second ad after every video.

I know I've shilled it before, but try the Brave browser. It has built in adblockers that block all popup ads on youtube. I don't ever see ads unless I open up a youtube video a certain way. In a tab i think it was. I made a post about it a while ago.
