I often see the sentiment that YouTube and adblockers will be forever locked in a cat-and-mouse game. However, for many years now, Twitch has entirely eliminated adblocking on desktop web.
What is stopping YouTube from replicating Twitch’s advertising strategy of embedding ads directly into their videos?
I’m not OP and I don’t understand a thing but ironically Ublock blocked me from opening that link
Yeah… Pretty sure it’s just like how antivirus blocks certain apps that have code that looks suspicious.
Or it’s not the official site.
The link goes to the revanced app.
Yeah re-vanced and their affiliate urls got tossed into a few blocklists annoyingly.
Annoyingly, it’s more intentionally. Youtube has people working both sides, it makes it easier when two services they’re fighting start blaming each other instead of focusing on YouTube.
No, it’s because that’s a bootleg site. There’s a ton of them for revanced for some reason
True, but I’ve found all their urls to be blocked (.app .info and .net) and all three distribute the official app(s) (verified by comparing the apk hashes).
Doesn’t really matter which one you use.
As another commenter said, that’s because it’s not the official site!
