EDIT: SOLVED! And good god am I dumb. Cleared cookies for YouTube. Done.

Seems like a dumb question as I’m constantly reading posts about YouTube blocking and I’ve been in IT for 30 years, but I’m at a complete loss.

Using uBlock Origin 1.64.0, been fine until the last week or two. Still works in Edge! But it’s annoying to swap browsers back and forth and not be able to simply click a link in Firefox.

Searching the web all I get is old news, nothing about the latest fixes.

Is there something like revanced for a Windows desktop?

    uBlock Origin probably just needs its filter lists updated, you can update them by opening the extension, hitting the gears icon, clicking on the “filter lists” tab at the top and selecting update next to any that are outdated.

    Personally, I use the nuclear option because fuck google – I have AdNauseam (which includes uBlock Origin), SponsorBlock, PopUpOFF, DeArrow, Return Youtube Dislike, and CanvasBlocker.
