A Redditor has discovered a popup menu on YouTube, warning them of a three-strikes policy for blocking ads.

    I wouldn’t be so hopeful, Twitch has pretty much remained unbeaten and the only “ad block” solution I’ve found still gives a 30 second interruption of the stream, it just doesn’t show the ad anymore. It’s why I don’t use the site anymore, even with Twitch Turbo as an option these days.

      I use this one and it works perfectly fine. No interruptions
