Youtube adblock blocking
I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated, but I am guessing there are a lot of adblock users here and I was wondering if anyone has seen the youtube adblock warning message in the wild. I use ublock origin and still haven't seen it once.

Adblock is piracy!
Just use Pided (https://piped.video), Invidious, Freetube or something else.
Youtube website is just trash bloated with JavaScript and trackers.
Most of YouTube viewing I do is on Roku. Are there any Roku/ATV/Tizen/webOS apps that I can use to watch videos on Piped instead?
Invidious got a Cease and Desist Letter from youtube.
The instance or the project? How could a interface violate a license?
They were served a C&D for misuse of the YouTube API.
But they don’t use the YouTube API…
Is it now? then I'll do it harder.
Sadly youtube has all the sweet content, all these alternatives are lacking on that main thing, content.
Nah, Invidious is just pure YouTube content.
Edit: for more context these are all alternative front-ends. Not replacement services.
