How? And what do you even block? They either display a big pop up or overlay the popup on the ENTIRE VIDEO.
I know at least removing the quickfix from ublock works for now -- but nobody knows how long.
Point is you will reach a zenith where they win the arms race. Trust me. Your only solution here is to tell them to fuck off or move to the alternatives with only 50 users, mostly Neo-Nazis.
Head to the settings for whichever browser extension you use, go to the tab in there that says “blocklists,” and hit refresh somewhere on that page.
And what do you even block?
You can’t do it manually here because Google throws up some code before the video player even loads. You have to just update the blocklist so that the adblocker itself can lie to Google about the flag it’s supposed to be seeing, whereupon YouTube will think everything’s hunky dory and the video will load.

In addition to what others mention, if you are using an android device like a chromecast, Google tv or Android phone look at using a different app. I really like smarttube. It blocks ads as well as in video sponsor segments. Makes quality of life much more tolerable on youtube.
What TF does Azov Batallion have to do with anything?
Alt-Right, Far-Right and Neo Nazi people have the majority of Steemit and Odysee. Most NPCs (which is the thing that matters the most to not let your site become an echo chamber) will not go there.
Update your blocklists....

Been 30 years and they haven’t won yet.

Ideally though support non youtube sites.
Wouldn't that get bombed and destroyed by Google to oblivion as well?
Hasn't yet for me on my googletv (I know, I know)
I think because it's 3rd party and you have to sideload it, they have less visibility and control as compared to an app store app.
Don't threaten me with a good time 😅

As well as some custom filters, but that's mostly stuff that's a personal annoyance to me.

You hold all the power in this equation.

Oh.... oh dear. You really believe those buzz words.
Bless your heart.
