I have UBlock installed on Firefox and what is pictured here is what has been happening for every video that I’m clicking on. Panning doesn’t make the video play either. I tried that. It’s not my internet connection since the videos and ads that you can’t even skip and pause when you tab out play just fine on Chrome. In the days before this happened I got several popups from YouTube saying that adblockers aren’t allowed after months of browsing YouTube ad-free without issue

      Me neither.

      • Browser: Zen (mod of Firefox)
      • Extension: LibRedirect (pre-installed in Zen IIRC)
      • App: FreeTube

      I click on a YouTube link and it opens in FreeTube, no ads.

      Every now and then, videos won’t play because of some change by Google, usually it’s just a day or so until FreeTube releases an update that works again.
