Uh, YT on FF is unusable now. They'll show the "adblockers not allowed" message if you have Ghostery enabled. Even if you disable that, they will add tons of artificial lag on things like key input, clicks and screen draw speed. I know it's artificial because it worked fine for years and then one day....

I’ve had zero issues or ads lately using Firefox + uBlock origin. For a while I had to update the Adblock lists manually sometimes, but for months now it’s been flawless for me.

Just wait a day and uBlock will update its filters. That's what happened to me initially. In the meantime I had a yt-dlp script for videos I wanted to watch. Tubular on mobile also works fine.

YT on Firefox + uBlock Origin works just fine for me, both on desktop and mobile!

This is a youtube vs ad-blockers issue afaik, not a firefox one. Still not enough for me to ditch UB-O but prob enough to waste less time on youtube

Works fine for me (FF + uBO on Linux).

I pay for premium because I watch a lot of youtube and it's not worth my time to fight their anti-adblock stance.

I use Firefox with uBlock and I don't see any slowdowns or breakages. Just another data point.

Disable ublock origin on Youtube, or pay for Youtube.

As for artificial lag, I suspect it is because it using the web standard version of Youtube. Had this issue with Google Sheets where paste did not work correctly (forget exactly what it is) and it did work on Chrome. Google uses non-standard things to optimize the experience.

It is not acceptable, but it is also an issue that will go away once more people go back to the fox.

I consider myself grandfathered into their 2006 plan.
