Description

Video player would not load at all at first. I tested every extension one by one (by turning off every other one) and I would get a loading circle thing for each one that has not changed for several minutes. In the past, I've not had this issue. It's only when I tried in a private window that I got a pop-up about an adblocker being detected.

(Apologise for any messups, I'm not super well-versed in any kind of computer stuff)

  • [X] I am not using uBlock Origin along with other content blockers.

You are. You're using dozens of content blockers (including ghostery, adnauseum, etc.). Read and follow all pre-requisites; do not just tick and ignore them.

Create a fresh firefox profile, and install uBO ONLY. If you still get an issue, then comment here.
