Unable to block results from YouTube

[sethapong]

Expected Behavior

All results from YouTube should be completely blocked from search results (videos, channel links, thumbnails, etc.).

Actual Behavior

The domain youtube.com has been on my blocklist for some time now, and the extension generally works fine for all sites included on my blocklist. However, in recent months, it appears that YouTube is the only website that cannot be blocked from my search results at all. I initially thought this was a Google-specific problem, so I tried doing the same on Bing and DuckDuckGo, but still encountered the same problem.

I have tried this using the mobile version of the extension (on iOS) and it doesn't seem to work for only YouTube as well. This seems to be a recurring problem that has to be fixed routinely for some reason (#389 is one past example with a similar issue).

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Add *://*.youtube.com/* to the blocklist
2. Search for any YouTube video or related content on Google or any other search engine (e.g. a random song, news clips, channel name, etc.)
3. Results are still not filtered out (showing YouTube videos and links in Google Search and thumbnails in Google Images; same with Bing and DuckDuckGo, and presumably any other search engine supported by the extension)

Specifications

• Browser: Google Chrome, Windows 11
• Other extensions/add-ons: uBlock Origin 1.61.2

• Search engine: Google (Search, Images, Videos), Bing (Search, Images), DuckDuckGo (Search, Images)
• Language: TH
• Region: TH

Update: I have managed to solve the problem for now by enabling the "block this site" dialog and manually clicking on it. This results in two duplicate entries of *://*.youtube.com/* on my blocklist. I'm not sure if this will permanently solve the issue but at least it works in the meantime.
