everything still fine here on firefox + ublock origin

Wish I could say the same.
I'm also using firefox + ublock, but Ive noticed when I'm watching shorts, I'll occasionally get an ad that's disguised as a short. There's no like/dislike buttons or anything.

Just block shorts alltogether, it's a win win.

I found some website that had a line of code that could be added to my adblocker to completely remove them.
Haven't seen them since.

That's intended. Even to premium subs youtube pushes adds which try and promote engagement. Its fucking awful.
Does get me out of the loop sometimes though, so I guess Im thankful for that.
