Nie wyobrażam sobie przeglądarki bez tego dodatku... ale ostatnio YouTube zwyczajnie wyłącza go. Nie mam pojęcia jakim cudem witryna (YouTube) może sobie włączać albo wyłączać wtyczki w mojej przeglądarce, ale u mnie dzieje się to zarówno na EDGE jak i na Operze.

Works well enough, except for YouTube constantly updating.

I keep changing the setting to let it block ads on YT, but it keeps turning itself off when I refresh. I checked the extension options, and YouTube is listed as an allowlisted website. I delete it, refresh and it is listed again.
