Enable/Disable Ads button dissapeared #31

Closed RadioactivePeaches closed 2 years ago

RadioactivePeaches commented 3 years ago

YT updated the UI, making the ads button invisible. Is it possible to add it back? I don't like adding channels manually.

Thank you for your report.

I've been trying to reproduce the issue with Firefox/Chrome on Windows/MacOS/Linux and have been unable to. It might be region/browser specific.

Could you post your current browser/version/operating system so I can test it out?

Thanks

RadioactivePeaches commented 3 years ago

Brave browser, Win 10. It allows extension downloads from google store which is how I got it. Everything is up to date at the moment.

Thank you for the screenshot! Looks like a slight redesign (possibly A/B testing), it has not hit my region (US), yet. I'd like to get some hands-on with this version of YouTube. Are you using YouTube Premium by chance?

Using this addon and YouTube Premium wouldn't make sense since YT Premium removes ads

No youtube premium. I live in Thailand if that helps! I didn't turn on any beta modes either. I just looked at my dad's mac and his youtube doesn't seem to have updated... I have no idea

x0a commented 3 years ago

Yes you're right. I've been attempting various browser UserAgents/VPN locations and have been unable to get this particular design to load. Since YouTube Premium allows access to newer designs, I may have to bite the bullet here and get it in an effort to fix this particular bug.

Longer term I'll come up with some kind of logging extension to track mutations that users can install to debug issues like these, since YouTube appears to be ramping up site-wide changes.

Do you think owning a youtube channel does anything?

x0a commented 3 years ago

Possibly. I'm going to go ahead and release the next update and add some logging to see if we can capture some of the modifications that we need to monitor to find the best place to put the ads button/channel ID information.

Also for the record, YouTube premium was a dud, zero access to anything relating to this.

Hi, I also experience this when i had another extension. My extension is for subtitle. It looks like these extensions are in conflict.
