For me, it also works to stop using Chrome and use Firefox instead (so far.)

I've had no issues with either Chrome or Firefox in Incognito with uBlock Origin. But I do kinda wonder if the fact I have YouTube Premium on one of my accounts in Chrome means Google isn't trying too hard to block my IP/detect adblockers on it.

Same, I am logged into the YT Premium on Edge and don't have any issues with Chrome logged into another account without Premium.

Oh it does it to me in Firefox too. Or at least, it puts up an annoying flag warning me that it'll stop working.

For Firefox...

1. about:addons (type into url bar and go)

2. click on the uBlock Origin Name

3. Where is says "Run in Private Windows", click on the *allow* radio button

All done.
