Youtube has added a new "feature" that blocks users with adblockers from viewing videos. How do I get around this while still blocking ads? I currently use uBlock Origin on firefox.

i just use yt-dlp to download the video these days. i have lots of filters in addition to ublock's default ones, somehow they're clashing with youtube and i can't properly play any video. yt-dlp+mpv is also much faster on my potato system, and makes me save videos.
