I FOUND A FIX

If you have UBlock Origin: Make sure it’s enabled, make sure everything is fully updated in brave://components , and then reset the extension to factory settings.

I am once again not getting any ads and youtube isn’t detecting anything.

uBlock Origin doesn’t work either, the fixes are coming from them

update
now after three videos in the same tab ads are being blocked on desktop

So its working now then?

yes am testing with block ads and aggressive ads options and they are being blocked i even can’t notice the 15 sec ad. now what’s left is the twitch ads

Still not working despite the recommended suggestions.

it might be not for everyone but on my side is ok. maybe after an update for everyone might work

it wasn’t working for me either, but I cleared youtube cookies, updated brave://components/ and then restarted Brave and it seems OK now.

At the start of each youtube video, I get a little pop up in the bottom left of the screen that says “Experiencing Interruptions?, Here’s Why” but no ads at the moment.

I tried making those exact same adjustments without any success.

in my view i just left to work while brave was open for 8 hours and came back started listening to mixes on youtube and suprisingly worked (for me)

This issue with YouTube is also occurring on Edge and on Chrome even when using UBlock Lite, in addition to Brave.

YouTube is working normally on Firefox with no issues.

Let me qualify that by saying using Firefox with UBlock Origin.

Still seeing Ad’s on Youtube, can this be fixed because it used to be fixed fast and now it has been days at least.
