>>50714702It varies, though I am not sure how.
I have seen plenty of people swear up and down the adblocker they're using works always 100%, but others have issues. There's a luck factor there, somehow, and also probably a country factor.
Even TTVLOL had an instance last month where some fags I know were watching a stream and all of them got hit with a 5 ad break for the first time since using it, but someone in another thread said there's no way because he's not had issues personally and it must be them and everyone else saying it happened as well that fucked up. The real answer was the proxies are no longer able to support the request count without Twitch throttling them or something, but apparently that didn't matter to him and it must be them and not the adblocker failing.
Even back in 2021 when I mentioned in an IRC channel that I don't even bother using streamlink to watch because it had started showing the purple screen waiting for ads to roll I was told it must be me cause the other chucklefucks, who happened to be in countries where that solution was still working fine, had not seen that. Of course it hit them some months later after Twitch got shit figured out for their country.
Anyway point is none of the solutions are actually 100% working. If it works for you, great, but chances are you just happen to hit the right combination of location or timing that lets it work.
>>50699852>>50715192If you guys actually read the release notes and issues, you'll see that it's actually not working fully anymore, and it is indeed only a matter of time before it stops and you'll have to host your own proxy, lest the default proxies they provide get throttled with too many requests to Twitch.
