I just checked out Twitch again after a while and WOW has that site gotten shitty. But I’m trying to watch someone and really don’t want ads every few minutes. Instead of paying Bezos to remove half the ads, how can I configure my uBlock Origin to block them all for free?

    Have you tried changing either your wifi router or computer/devices to use Ad blocking DNS? The two most popular ones are AdGuard DNS and NextDNS.

    With that said, it is typically recommended to use add blocking add-ons in the browsers, etc, because the above DNS blocking options can break websites, etc.

      Twitch slipstreams ads into the live feed, dns blocking won’t work. noodlejetski has links below to working twitch adblock. it’s similar to the way YT does it, and the workarounds are playing whack-a-mole
