How do I fix "This content isn't available. Try again later." On YouTube with their new ad-block blocking? (lemmy.ml)

Youtube has added a new "feature" that blocks users with adblockers from viewing videos. How do I get around this while still blocking ads? I currently use uBlock Origin on firefox.

uBlock origin > Open the dashboard > Filter lists > Uncheck uBlock Filters > Check uBlock filters

This will force an update & reapply the filters. Usually the first thing you should try when issues like this pop up
