Yep. 2nd part is important.
The way I solved this was to leave my regular browser setup alone, make a new Firefox profile just for YouTube, install ONLY ublock origin, and create a shortcut to that profile on my desktop.
Now I only use that profile for YouTube. I haven’t seen one ad since this thing started.
Firefox has profiles?
Always has been.
See

and the--profile ${directory}
switch.I did the same for Facebook
