BeepTwitch: "Hey, come back! This commercial break can't play while you're away."
The_Hideous_OrgalorgI don’t understand how anyone can use the Internet without ublock. I have before, and am about to again, change fuel stations due to them installing those stupid ad playing pumps.
Yeah but uBlock can’t or at least doesn’t block Twitch ads, so that doesn’t really apply here.
Of course it does, I have never seen an ad in Twitch, thus is it course in Firefox, don’t know how it works in Chrome with the messed up adblock system 🤷
Sorry but that’s just wrong. Ads on Twitch are forced in a way that can’t be easily bypassed locally. That’s why stuff like Twitch AdSolutions exists. The common workaround is using a proxy server in countries that don’t get ads, maybe you live in one of those.
Oh it seems that you are right, I didn’t know that, I thought it was just blocked through ublock.
Thanks for your comment
lime!ublock can too block twitch ads, because it can run adsolutions itself. it’s even on that page you linked.
I used to support testing the adblock solutions from Pixeltris some years ago when Twitch actively starting fighting adblockers. It turned out the only reliable way is to use a proxy or VPN of a country that doesnt serve ads via amazons ad system. Mostly small countries where it’s not worth place advertisments. I am using eithe czech, polish or Luxembourg IPs and usually dont get any ads this way anymore as there are no corporstions using their af service.
You can add a little string of text to ublock and itll work again. Havent seen an ad nonconsentually in years on there

rozodruit does but with Twitch it’s a constant battle. you can go for days or weeks on end and it’ll work great then boom a few days to a week and it won’t work anymore until the maintainers figure out yet another way to circumvent twitch ads.
It just got to a point for me where I just stopped using twitch. I mean the site overall and the content/streamers have just gotten a lot worse in the past few years and there’s really nothing on there anymore worth watching.
other than Main official of the game companies, STREAMERS themselves started leaning politically and grifting from it.
ramassesTheirs a script on github to block twitch ads, works flawlessly
