Echoing the people in that thread: works fine with firefox
Haven't had any issues.
Better question is: Can I block that crap via PiHole at the perimeter?
- Youtube ads cannot be blocked at the DNS level for years.
  
  Is there really no way?
It works most of the time for me. I do keep updating the filter list in ubo but sometimes it still doesn't work and i end up with the pop up "Allow ads to play this video". I'm using Firefox btw.
