While I agree; between an up-to-date uBlock Origin and https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/chrome-mask https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/chrome-mask YT is quite usable.
Long term I'm more worried by Mozilla leadership than Google shenanigans.
- normie3000 2y agoFrom your link: > Please don't use Chrome Mask on YouTube. It won't resolve any issues, and it will make your experience worse over time. If some issue got fixed after toggling Chrome Mask on, it most likely got fixed by the addon clearing the cache. But you can do that yourself, too, without the need for this addon.
- Timshel 2y agoI can't seem to find your citation from the add-on page. Might be a placebo but YT appear more responsive with it on than off after a ctrl+f5. Edit: appears to be in the reviews: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/chrome-mask/reviews/2128307/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/chrome-mask/r...
- inferiorhuman 2y agoYT is quite usable Ehh. Youtube has been problematic for 3 or 4 Firefox versions now. If you leave a video open long enough memory usage skyrockets and the page becomes unresponsive. Supposedly it's just been fixed? https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1i182q7/firefox_13401_just_released_with_fix_for_memory/ https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1i182q7/firefox_13...
