Website idea: a downdetector-like site that uses reddit's "here now" numbers to give insight into whether something is going on with a certain thing.
edit: Has anyone else not really been affected by the new youtube adblock policy at all? I think I have seen the warning a single time, and I use youtube all the time. I only use ublock origin and privacy badger... on chrome. Maybe that's it.
The megathread addresses this:
> I've never seen this message. Is this because of my browser being X or Y? No, YouTube didn't roll this out to everybody yet.

On all other days, I was free to watch whatever I wanted while logged in. They might complain at me about ad blocking, or not.
On all days, youtube-dl worked fine. (This matters because, contemporaneously with the anti-ad-blocking campaign, YouTube started sometimes reducing my video frame rate to 0 fps. Audio never suffered at all.)
It's not a strict regime.
not really. firefox + privacy badger + ubo. once a week or so i do get blocked but then i clear cookies, restart firefox and relogin and then it works.
