Brave browser + extensions - which one is blocking YT ads?
Posted on 11/15/23 at 8:18 am

For the extension Enhancer for YouTube, I have ad blocking turned off.
For the Brave browser, I have the "shields" down.
For Surfshark VPN, I have CleanWeb turned off.
What other extension from the screenshot above may be causing YT to not play on my computer? Is there a work-around?

Probably need to turn off the Privacy Badger extension, Brave also might have some backend blockers. I hope Brave doesnt get totally messed up for YT.

Brave has an integral ad blocker, not an extension.

Is this different than having "shields down?" I am not able to find anything different in settings.

Brave, without extensions, will block ads and not have any issues with youtube's new adblocking detection.

I understand what you are saying. I just updated my Brave browser and my issue with YT continues (ads are being automatically blocked, and I cannot view any videos on YT).

Do you have issues when in private mode? All extensions should be disabled in private mode unless you made manual changes to the settings. If it works fine in private mode then you know you have an extension issue and not a brave setting issue.

Great suggestion. I will check.
Update.
I copied this link LINK which would not play in regular browser mode into private mode, and it worked flawlessly in private mode.
As you suggested, this tells me I have an issue with an extension. I'll need to figure out which one now through a process of elimination.
