uBlock isn’t “install and forget”; it needs some initial setup. Add some “filter lists” and overall look what is there in the settings.
Still, you should think about that self-esteem thing. Why do you still use that site with “ad blockers violate the terms of service” nagging? Do you really need it?
I installed it and did the setup and it worked great for many months. Then, in the last few days, something changed, though I made no changes to my browser or ublock. Today it works fine. Yesterday I was getting the nag. I didn’t make any changes from yesterday to today.
I might be wrong but I think ad blocker warnings show up briefly after YouTube updates its detection methods. They vanish once filter lists catch up. It’s an ongoing cat-and-mouse game.
To reduce these warnings, update your ad blocker’s filter lists or they’ll eventually they do so automatically.
Update Filters: In uBlock Origin, open the dashboard, go to the “Filter lists” tab, and click “Update now.” Keeping uBlock itself updated helps too. Clearing cache can sometimes help. I think Firefox has better uBlock support, Chrome is toxic to adblocker integration.
Some sites actively try to fight adblockers while adblockers try to block anti-adblocking code on such sites. Most probably you’re watching the process of upgrading anti-adblock scripts on such site.

Youtube did something recently and uBlock had to update in response. I think it was automatically rolled out sometime “last night.”

Genuine question, where else can you find a slew of car repair videos?
