I just tried it (Android). Seems solid. Can't block youtube ads though so for now, sticking with my Firefox+Ublock in android.
I'm using qutebrowser as my daily driver, and which it doesn't have extentions it does have a basic adblocker. The really useful thing I found though was a greasemonkey script that just sets the playing speed of youtube adds to "Ludicris Speed", so the creators still get paid.
