Does YouTube block mentions of uBlock Origin or Sponsorblock in comments? (biglemmowski.win)

15 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I was trying to give pointers to people in comments but it seems whenever I wrote uBlock Origin, "u B lock", SponsorBlock or "S p onSor Block" (without quotes) the comment would vanish within first minute.

Is this happening only to me/on this one specific video (in Czech, don't want to link because I don't agree with the points they said, though it was video about the adblock blocking of YT)?

If you're not aware YouTube has heavy comment filters which use NLP in a heavy handed way to remove "negative" comments.

YouTube comments are genuinely worth nothing anymore because they're cherry picked by software

Also the creator can remove the comments he wants.
