I'm unable to watch any video despite uBlock instructions thing.
Purge YouTube cookies and site data, log in again and see if it works

I had this too, only thing that worked was clearing cookies and site data of YouTube, then logging in again. Another browser on the same account with the same uBlock settings worked the whole time, so I guess it's "device" bound not account bound. Since the cookie purge I don't even get the AdBlock warnings anymore.
Revanced still works, not using it is just silly.
