They've added a full page ad that opens a new browser randomly and injecting ads directly into youtube.

I added some photos on this reddit post

Thanks for sharing. I haven't noticed anything on the Firefox extension under the same name. ublock may be stopping it. I can investigate and post what I find here in a few hours.

Update from the dev:

> Unfortunately the extension requires quite a large database (~15TB) - and it costs money.

> The ad\changelog was supposed to show only on browser restart - i.e. be much less intrusive

> The idea behind paid features was also to cover the costs (since donations became smaller than the hosting costs).

> I messed up with implementation though.

> Sorry.

I do feel for the developer, and I am not anti asking for donations, and the full page pop up on browser restart I don't think is terrible, but it would have been better to maybe have a changelog and have a donation button. The ads injected directly into youtube make me lose a lot of trust

You gotta be a bit short sighted to imagine that the kind of people that would download an extension would accept ads.

On the other hand, you also have to be a bit short sighted to be installed gargabage like "an extension so you can downvote" lol.
