I've heard variants of this story so many times, but it leaves me confused over my own experience. This sort of high frequency breakage just does not happen for me, I can't even say rarely. Definitely not on youtube. So what is going on there?

It happened to me when I enabled some of the optional annoyances filter lists in uBlock Origin. Things like sign-up pages not working, full-page cookie modals you can't quit etc.
