For those who are on Safari (macOS and iOS), I highly recommend using Vinegar [0].
But that being said, recently even Vinegar is struggling a lot when I open a YouTube video (although the developer is promptly fixing issues). The video starts playing in the background, but I can't see it, then it pauses for a few seconds and restarts.
It's crazy how terrible YouTube is making the experience on their site!

- wrboyce 3y ago+1 for Vinegar, I much prefer the native video player. I originally installed it to allow PIP but the ad removal is a welcome bonus. There is also Baking Soda, from the same author, which does the same thing but for every website except YouTube. https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/baking-soda-tube-cleaner/id1601151613 https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/baking-soda-tube-cleaner/id160...
- timenova 3y agoI started using Baking Soda too recently. Much better experience browsing the web. Using both of these (and yt-dlp) actually shows how hostile the video web is becoming!
