I am also having a problem with YouTube currently with a different browser.

Yeah, it looks like youtube might be using an ad blocker blocker. I opened up windows edge and youtube runs fine . . . .with ads.

Youtube is getting more aggressive against ad-blockers on ad-supported videos.

Give the ad-blocker devs a few hours or a day or so to update and things should work again.

This time of day is also peak hours for web-traffic.

Though, prepare for the possibility that at some point, youtube will not work at all without forcing annoying and stupid ads.

Also, even though Brave is a decent browser, it is still technically open source Chromium-based ( related to evil Google), but for now seems to still be working fine for me but vids there sometimes error load as well.

Indeed there are times the 'tube is slow to que up in Brave - "the tubes are full" 🤣

Opera GX plays them pretty quickly, and still supports Ublock Origin 🏆

Youtube got a UI update and is having behind the scenes troubles, nothing to do with ad block.

Asking because I'm currently unable to view youtube vids. Not sure if it's the browser or youtube adding codes to block people using ad block.

I'm not having any issues personally, but then again I use Tampermonkey to supplement the adblocking built into Brave.

Mine is now working again

Sweet, back to no ads watching.

Probably just a temporal server side fix by Alphabet corp aka google. Should be fixed later on today or by the weekend.

I have not logged into google on this PC yet in almost two years. It wants me to prove Im not a bot constantly and Im sick of it.
