    OK wat114 and bjm_.:) Took a look at the link, bjm_ and that prompted me to take another look at the uBO dash and indeed, a Quick Fixes update was waiting. Now the overlay is gone again. I only mentioned it because it's been quite a while and you're lulled into complacency. Then POOF. OK, well let's hope it's quelled again for the time being, right? Again, my gratitude and thanks to the uBO team--this is a Goliath they're up against.

    None of my screenshots are from a smartphone. uBO 1.53.0 is installed on PC and it doesn't
    matter if I'm running latest Firefox or Firefox ESR there is no warning text in uBO My Filters.

    then you should think about how you modified your browser to worse.
    the quote from me with width and hight is a fact, its a css sheet within uBo and its working.
    at least, the majority should not care, its you in a very small group/minority!

    @Brummelchen

    I tested a default install of latest Firefox (no modifications) along with a new
    default install of uBO 1.53.0. Get same results. Anyway it's a waste of my time
    responding to you so I'll end it here.

    It is.
    @Mr.X,
    Why EasyList/EasyPrivacy and AdGuard as well?
    Unusually, one chooses one, not both, as using both is quite redundant.

    Oh god, I'm only trying to show that even though using all filter lists, YouTube now is not working at all. Fine, no nag popup but no video either. :rolleyes:
    In other words, with my "normal" filter lists enabled the damn YT nag popup still appearing. The damn popup gives me three chances or videos to fully disable my adblocker before disabling the player.
    What I mean is I'm asking for help!!!:eek:

    Usually those that have knowledge but not everyone like me have knowledge. That's why I ask for help here. Usually I don't post anything in here to brag about my intellect or skills :rolleyes:

    Thanks, I did not understand that was why you used all those filters, nor did I understand that with all those filters YouTube now is not working at all.
    Thanks for clarifying.

    Same here @Mr.X , I also didn't understand the purpose of all the enabled lists. Thanks also for clarifying.

    Maybe try disabling the additional lists one by one until hopefully YT videos play without the nuisance pop-ups.

    That's OK, see below.
    However, I don't know if it is helpful.
    I haven't seen the YouTube anti-adblock thingy, but I don't use YouTube much. If I did, I don't know if I wouldn't see the anti-adblock.

    Plus, there is this older YouTube filter rule in My filters, but I don't think it holds any significance against the anti-adblocker:
    www.youtube.com##.ytp-ce-element

    True.

    So I need to log out and watch YT that way? Really? I want to be logged in, always.
    I'm always logged in so maybe this is the problem, in my case.

    @Mr.X

    are you using any other extensions besides uBO? If so, they could be interfering. Check out the Reddit article bjm_ linked to if you haven't already.

    EDIT

    for the first time in several weeks, I logged into YT and played at least 15 consecutive videos with no anti-adblock warnings at all. My filter lists are essentially no more than the defaults. Btw, I'm using Floorp and sometimes Firefox latest and I even use a userChrome.css for browser customizations in both browsers, and it does not interfere whatsoever.

    Yes I am. I disabled them just now without positive results though.
    uBO is the only adblocker extension in my setup.
