posted 4 years agoHi Kelsie,
We are aware of the issue on YouTube. YouTube is working hard to ensure their ads are seen. They are targeting different accounts with different strategies: a few of our users are seeing ads, others are seeing white screens, others are seeing error messages but most aren't seeing any ads at all. We are working to try and address these issues but we are a very small entity so it may take some time before we can address all of these issues fully.
Because this appears to be an account-related issue you may find that creating a new YouTube account or switching to another you already have may help. We know this is not ideal, but did want to offer it as a workaround until we can get this fixed. You can read more about this issue in our Help Center: https://help.getadblock.com/support/solutions/articles/6000109702.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18413712, 10 days agoWhen I install an adblock, I install it get to rid of ads, not to replace them all with another ad that interupts what you're doing to open another tab with a god damn ad.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13465391, 14 days agoI got an ad blocker to remove constant pestering and distractions from companies. The fact that this ad blocker constantly opens a new tab that makes me sometimes lose what I was looking at in my many tabs is astounding. At the rate it happens, I'm starting to feel like this ad blocker is, ironically, adware. I'm not against them asking donations, but to do so in such a obtrusive way defeats the purpose of the extension. Please find another way to ask, or severely reduce the frequency that these tabs show up.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18405463, 16 days agoFor people who's mission is "is to create a worry-free and distraction-free internet" they do like to distract you by interrupting whatever you are doing to ask for a donation. This seems to happen about every 4th time I open firefox, usually a few minutes into the session - so just as I am starting to type or interact with something.
On the plus side it does stop ads, so if you can cope with the relentless demands for a contribution for this "free" add-on this may be for you....Developer response
posted 16 days agoThanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. If you're interested, here's more about how our contribution page works: For non-Premium users, we populate the page when we update the extension to keep you informed on changes we've made and as a reminder to support AdBlock if you find the software beneficial. We don't track who has previously paid unless your extension is already upgraded to Premium (and in that case, we won't show you the update page at all). There is no obligation to pay and you are welcome to close the page by clicking the "x" on the tab at the top of the page if you've already paid or prefer not to support us at this time. You can learn more about our payment options and philosophy in our Help Center: https://help.getadblock.com/support/solutions/articles/6000087896-do-i-have-to-pay-for-adblock- Please feel welcome to open a ticket at https://helpcenter.getadblock.com/hc/en-us/requests/new if you have any questions or additional feedback. — Kat C., AdBlock Support - Rated 5 out of 5by Carneiro, 19 days ago
