I haven't but I can make it appear by turning on the Block ads feature in YouTube Enhancer (so no one can tell me it's "slow rollout"). So far Filterlist devs are doing a great job at blocking them, just like they always have on every website that is commonly used and isn't a malware or scam site (not great examples of Anti-adblock sucess since they're usually added to malware filters once detected).
