Update 1/16 - Adblock has informed BleepingComputer that its engineers fixed the problem and released ABP 3.22.1 and AB 5.17.1 on the Opera and Edge extension stores. The same versions are currently in review on the Mozilla and Chrome add-on stores, and should be made available soon.

Does ublock origin even work with chrome on YouTube anymore? I switched to Firefox a couple months ago because, even after updating ublock origin, YouTube still detected that I was using an ad blocker and refused to show me content.

Clear the filter cache on ublock origin, and update the filters to the latest ones, should work

Go into the dashboard, clear the filers and update them there.

It does still work, but YouTube is often pushing breaking changes multiple times per week. It's really an arms race.
