minus-square@feeflinkEnglish12•2 days agoI have ff and ublock on windows and every now and then YouTube videos have issues like stopping playing and not recovering (where an ad would play). Only fix is to hard refresh the page.
minus-square𝕸𝖔𝖘𝖘linkfedilinkEnglish7•2 days agoThat’s one of their antiAdBlock features, actually, and it’s working as designed. Hard refresh doesn’t work for me. I stopped using yt site on desktop, and only use freetube now. If a video doesn’t play on that, I yt-dlp it.
