I have a Maleware Bytes adblocker though I uninstalled their actual software lol so if Chrome complains about that ad blocker than yeah I'll probably just switch browsers, but for now I'll just keep using Chrome like a sucker. Plus they get revenue from me anyways on my smart tv and phone (if I use it on mobile which isn't too often). So it's not like I block all their ads. They just should just know somehow and be happy about that fact :P

@saspa
What the hell version of Firefox desktop are you using as it looks nothing like mine? https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/9/0/AAfUmvAAExBu.jpg As you can see from my screencap no ad block youtube warning. I see that you only have uBlock Origin installed as your ad blocker. That is ludicrous in only having one ad blocker. I have this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/9/1/AAfUmvAAExBv.jpg And this:https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/9/2/AAfUmvAAExBw.jpg And this https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/9/3/AAfUmvAAExBx.jpg Having just one ad blocker is crap.
