@GabeMoralesVR I'm saying to use the official filter-lists by uBlock which are updated constantly instead of taking a fixed rule from a random 4 month old forum post (which is the source of the recent rules mentioned in viral posts)

@sponsorblock you're talking about deleting cache, a "fix" that already has a hit/miss ratio that is significant enough to be considered superstition.

Not to mention that the only reason deleting the cache works for *SOME* people, is because Youtube is allowing a few instances of blocking (three strike rule) before kicking you out. This will change in the near future assuredly, like every site that institutes ad block does.

@GabeMoralesVR You may be misunderstanding, I am talking about clicking "Purge caches" in uBlock's filter list setting to be able to update lists. Otherwise, it only updates lists every 3 days. The latest YouTube related filter-list change was 4 hours ago.

I am not talking about resetting your browser's cache. I edited it to be more clear.

Forcen

Just to be clear, they are also updating the "quick-fixes.txt" list which updates every 12 hours: github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAsset
So it should be a bit quicker than 3 days.

Also there is some advanced settings you can change to make it update out of date lists quicker: github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki
Change these three to a lower value to increase the frequency of updates of OOD lists.
