In-built adblockers aren't going to be affected by MV3 anyway. They are not extensions, thus Google is powerless there.
That's cool, but YouTube detects Vivaldi's built in adblocker, so it's kinda irrelevant if it's affected by extension policies.
To use YT in Vivaldi, you have to properly configure uBlock Origin (avoid extra filters that interfere with YT) and disable the builtin adblock for YT. And given that Vivaldi relies on Chrome Extension Store for its extensions, there will still be some friction to getting Mv2 extensions after Google pulls the plug on them.
OP has literally said that YT didn't block them/didnt show any ads while using Vivaldi... As far I'm concerned, I couldn't care less. I don't use YT at all.
Vivaldi user here. So far, I've had zero problems accessing YouTube.
