Youtube & UBlock Origin - Galaxy01 - 01-10-2025

Youtube is starting the spinning game again, frequency is increasing randomly. 

Checked Ublock Origin's settings, found the 'Quick Fixes' option under Ublock Filters is no more available.
Any other alternatives to stop the Youtube spinning before it loads the video?

Running Firefox 143.0.3 , Win11.

Any of you guys experiencing it?

Or just pay for YouTube premium.

That's what I do. Mind you, I've just had notice of a price rise...

ublock origin version 1.66.4 still working correctly for me and as expected, I still have Quick Fixes in the filter section.

Have you got SponsorBlock for YouTube - Skip Sponsorships add on? Version 6

oh Firefox [facepalm] yes ignore my post, the original ublock origin should work fine in FF, but you could try updating the lists in the config


RE: Youtube & UBlock Origin - Galaxy01 - 02-10-2025

How to update the lists?

Never had any issues with ublock origin on Firefox, youtibe still works for me.


RE: Youtube & UBlock Origin - Galaxy01 - 05-10-2025

Updated my Firefox to 143.0.4 and Youtube is now working OK.

So the problem was with Firefox rather than Ublock origin!


RE: Youtube & UBlock Origin - nzoomed - 05-10-2025

I know i had something similar happen a year or so back and an update sorted it, but largely ive never ran into any issues.
