There's been some weirdness on YTs end when it comes to the way Brave blocks ads. In the main tab, everything is blocked. But if you open a video in a new tab, you get ads. So far people are only saying "It's something YT has done, we have to wait for a fix" but the tab system is weird in other ways as well. With the video service Bitchute, you couldn't watch a video unless you opened the video up in a new tab, it would just get stuck loading forever. It seems now they have fixed that issue though.

Huh, it totally works fine in Chrome. I'm assuming they use their own ad blocking technique
