YouTube Ads not blocked Mar 2024 (using outdated Brave and Mac)

[Saoiray]

Mac OS 10.11.6 (I know!), Brave Version 1.40.1

Which you know isn’t supported. It’s going to be missing a lot of the tools used by the browser for adblocking.

@Kelly_E

UBlock Origin…because Chrome doesn’t like my computer’s age.

Umm, that and Google has removed uBO . MV3 changes hit and they have turned off updates and all

@Kelly_E

I tried solutions

But you didn’t list the most important ones that we repeat regularly. For example: PSA: YouTube Adblock Detection

TL:DR

Make sure:

• You have everything updated at brave://components
• Brave is updated to its most recent release
• You are using little to no extensions. If you have an issue, remove them entirely or test in private or new profile. You’ll tend to see issue won’t persist when you do this.
• Don’t use custom filters if possible.
• You may have to clear cookies/cache, as some have reported the warning will continue to show until then.
