I can imagine that perhaps the list is not loaded, or that there are cases where it does not work. To find out if the problem is the former, you should try providing us with the log (via chrome://crashes).

The ad blocker isn't going to block all ads, especially on YouTube. You can try building your own blocklist incorporating some custom YouTube lists, but YouTube's ad delivery goes beyond simple host-based ad calls, and they frequently make changes to their delivery that make 100% foolproof blocking extremely difficult.

Yet, for some reason the last chromium ad block still works against youtube.

until youtube changes its javascript it will continue to work. then you will have to ask https://gitlab.com/eyeo/anti-cv/abp-filters-anti-cv
