Brave Shield - YouTube blocks videos, detected ad blocker

Hi there,
I have been using Brave for quite sometim


e now, never had any real issues, until today, I was watching a YouTube video, and as I moved to the next video, I got this message, that I must allow the ads, which I cannot do, I hate and despise adverts, the reason I chose Brave is because of its ability to block the ads, now, YouTube has come back and quite aggressively.
I would appreciate any help or suggestions,
Thank you again

@adambask if you close the window and then visit youtube.com again, does the message still appear?

I am afraid so, I have cleared the catch even rebooted the pc, but, as soon as I click on a video the message appears again.

same thing happening here

I would say for you to use FreeTube - https://freetubeapp.io/ , it seems to be a client that has hardly affected by any of Youtube’s changes. It’s free and open source; works on anything but iOS.
