It really isnt getting harder to dodge past the initial recent push. "Go to settings, purge cache, refresh list, refresh youtube" is just as many steps today as it was when this recent push started
I've still yet to see it.. not even had to do any of those things. Something about my setup I guess neutralises it.
Me neither.
Windows
PiHole (AWS Lightsail instance)
Edge
TubeBlock extension
Waiting for the hammer to drop. OTOH, I don't watch much Tube.
I was, but they stopped appearing once I completely cleared browsing history and cookies. I also did another purge and update for good measure.
The only pain in the ass was that I ended up changing the username of some of my accounts but forgot to update them in my account manager, so it took a bit to find and log into them. But that was completely on me and won't happen if you're not being an idiot like I was.
