Ublock dashboard, filter lists, purge cache and update. Should work
post
Purge your filters and redownload. It's a problem on your end.
watched a free movie on yt for the first time in a couple months last thursday. i knew about the new war on adblockers, so i had updated ublock origin's filter list cache first.
worked fine no ads, even got 1080p, which i rarely ever see for the 'legit' mainstream tv shows and movies they have.
even got 1080p
What's up with that by the way? I constantly watch videos in 720p that advertise 4K in the title.
Can you choose 4K from the little gear icon in the bottom right corner of the player?
Not trying to defend YouTube, but I think they align video quality to network speed so you can watch without buffering.
No, I can't manually set hit higher either
the big content providers and studios often don't allow a higher bitrate or resolution in a third-party (to the os its on) browser.... i hardly ever see 1080p available on that free stuff on yt.
I installed freetube in preparation of this, haven't used youtube itself all week either freetube or invidious and both work well for now, would recommend both if you're open to them
Go to "Filter Lists" and Purge All Caches. That may help.
I did that and it worked! Thank you!!!
Mine is working fine but Sabine Hossenfelder made a pro-capitalism video that ignores the deterioration of the global market in the 20th century. Can someone send her a bugfix?
Sir this a is a community about firefox
I use Librewolf (Firefox fork with enabled protections against trackers and spyware) with uBlock origin. And I had no issues so far with youtube.
P.S. Also, couldn't remember the last time I saw "please turn off adblock" nagging on random websites... or an ad...
I'm using these. YouTube still works, but I haven't used the 'Home' tab since the nag screen about turning watch history on. I won't. My subs still work fine. I'm in the process of manually building my list in https://freetubeapp.io/ (can't get the import to work)

I'd ditch AdBlock Plus. uBlock origin is better in every regard and there's no acceptable ads bullshit:
Use invidious
I use freetube
Still working for me. Only change I noticed is that the edges of the video player are rounded now.
Still working for me. I'm wondering if it's a staggered rollout on YouTube's end. Have you had any luck in getting this working again?
Stopped working yesterday now I just find what I want to watch and watch it on piped. It's a little more annoying but less annoying than the endless ads every few minutes
Purging the filters of uBlock worked for me, maybe it'll help you too. But I was using piped too.
It should be illegal to interfere with a user experience outside of delivering it to them.
Samet thing happened to me thsn got fixed by itself, I switched to piped tho in case they win the war on adblock
