Firefox with sponsorblock installed and ublock origin?
replyI haven't been able to watch youtube in the browser for ages. I get like one 10-20s chunk then nothing further. Do you use just the standard block lists?
replyWorks well for me on Firefox with uBlock origin without any special lists.
replyPersonally I use my own fork of FreeTube on desktops, though, falling back to Firefox with uBlock when there are outages.
Your experience is strange, I use the official Chrome (not Chromium) with uBlock Lite and everything works perfectly (except the 5s delay at the start).
replyAre you using a VPN? Youtube will be a jerk to those IPs. I need to set my exit node to either Poland or Albania to watch YT. (The latter incidentally is supposed to act as an ad-blocker due to local legislation banning some types of ads, but I have my own ad-blockers so I cannot confirm.)
replyEven on the fastest computer I got, I have to wait 2 whole minutes for the website to finish loading. I think they really hate Firefox.
replyI use Firefox (and Librewolf), and have no issues.
replySo, it must be some extension or content blocker list causing that issue?
Freetube is pretty great, also you can import your newpipe subs. Http://Freetubeapp.io
replyShameless promotion here but I think https://channelsurfer.tv is a good experience.
replyBrave browser.
replyI'm not sure about transferring subscriptions between Pipe and Brave...?
It's not that well known, but mpv supports playing youtube videos. I think you need yt-dlp installed.
replyGrayjay I'd say. Also works great on Android.
replyFreetube if it's still working? I haven't tried it in a while.
replyIt's working again.
