en Working perfectly for me. As someone else mentioned, you need to change the mode of the player if all you're seeing is a black screen with (double) audio. Click the default view icon on your player and it will work.

en Works great so far! So sad to see that we need to make all of these workarounds. Wouldn't it be awesome if YouTube just had an "Ad-free" option instead of the whole damn Music bundle? Greedy B*st*rds

en I just got the "After 3 videos your player will be blocked" message tonight. After some digging online, I found this via a post you made on Reddit. After adding the extension, I was still getting the message from YouTube. After 3 videos, I could no longer play videos anymore. I clicked on the Plunger extension, and noticed the "Enable privacy-enhanced mode" option. I clicked on that, and -so far- it seems to be working. Fingers crossed! 4/21/24 Edit: I've had a couple minor issues where the video won't play but the audio is. If I try to pause the video and restart it, I get double audio until I refresh the page. I've figured out the fix for the frozen video is to change the video mode. In other words, set it for Theater or Full Screen mode. That immediately plays the video correctly, without messing up the audio.
