It is a well-known thing that browser adblockers often fail to play nicely with YouTube these days. However, even if you paid for Premium Lite, Google says it will soon push even more ads.
They must be making extra effort lately. I got the “Ad blockers are prohibited” popup twice today on two systems. One Linux and one windows. Librewolf, UO and SB on both.
My ublock origin was having issues today and I had to scale back some of the stuff being blocked.

Yup I think that’s it. I got a “you have playback issues?” popup today. Also it takes longer to load.
Maybe YouTube will push me away, but for now it’s too convenient.
Just use invidious or Newpipe if the adblock ever stops working
