For some reason, I got this popup but I didnt care which then blocked my player but I tried several different adblockers simultaneously which made the ads not play but there was a black screen for 5 seconds or so when the ad should've played but then I installed adguard, which after that no matter what I did on youtube, didn't get any ad anywhere or the popup, with the ad blockers on or off .

Using Vivialdi btw
