This is a big concern for me, I use YouTube a lot on desktop browser with uBlock Origin. It will be crushing for me when they shut that down. I have no viable alternative to YouTube. It's not just that, Google is forcing everyone to the Manifest V3 extension platform which reduces adblock capability on Chrome. So it's like a double whammy. I can move to Firefox to avoid that, but I'm in a corner with YouTube. Seriously the internet is mostly intolerable without a blocker like UBO.
