    That’s interesting, I’ve done something similar to news sites that block you from viewing them and scrolling down.

    I used to take one of my adblockers and select individual elements to block in hopes I could read the article normally. It rarely worked and typically I still wouldn’t be able to scroll. Did you happen to do something similar with youtube a couple of weeks ago when they started getting more aggressive and adblockers didn’t have their filters updated yet? If so maybe reinstalling your adblocker will help, but tbh I’m not amazing with technical stuff like this.

      No, I was unable to see Youtube comments months before Youtube started their campaign against adblockers, I just didn’t search for a solution because I had no interest in seeing Youtube comments. I have not been messing around with any settings for anything.
