50 yo sysadmin using uBo, had the same issue as the other fellow. Don't be so dismissive, you are not the average case.
Well I did get the warning several times while using Firefox + uBlock Origin and I had to manually go update the "quick fixes" filters in order to get it to work again. I did have other add-ons for YouTube aswell but no other adblockers.
Youtube pro (cant remember what the plugin was actually called) is what was fucking me over for a while
I didn't even know know there was a non Origin version of uBlock and I've had the same problems as everyone else
On my laptop I actually have AdGuard (I think? The one with the hedgehog mascot) and that has never given me any ads
It's really a case by case basis
Funny, I still have yet to see ads or performance changes and I've been using Vivaldi with no ad blocker but the built in one.
Guess that answers whether it has a better ad blocker than Brave.
