It's still working for me. Maybe because I'm also using uMatrix?

This is a 5 months old threads. ublock have been able to bypass youtube scripts for a while.

If it doesn't work for you, it's probably because it's not up to date or you have an extension that disrupt ublock.

While the YouTube/uBlock war of attrition was going on, I had to use the newest hotfix every couple of days.

Have had no problem with uBlock for around 2+ months now.

It has been working for me, even through all the stuff months ago. I wonder why some people seem to be affected constantly and some don't at all.

Not true. uBlock Origin works just fine. I actually never had problems with it not working, they seem to update it pretty fast. I'm using Firefox, maybe that also has something to do with it.
